The repository contains three commits starting in May of this year. GnuPG's gpg and gpgsm tools have been around a long time and implement IETF-standardized protocols that are mature and have been well researched. This tool doesn't seem to meet that threshold. It should be fine to set up the API such that one could use it if they wanted to with appropriate configuration, but I don't think we want to add support for it by default. > diff --git a/Documentation/technical/signing-interface.png b/Documentation/technical/signing-interface.png > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1a44a7f665d4a546ac6f18fb10208547e6a5fced > GIT binary patch > literal 76116 This doesn't appear to be used in this patch, and the commit message doesn't explain why it's included. I haven't looked at it, but if it's a chart of some sort, we usually prefer ASCII art for that purpose. -- brian m. carlson: Houston, Texas, US OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204
