Hi.
I was trying to implement a pre-push hook to verify my commits are
properly signed before pushing them, and stumbled upon the following
output (which looks like a bug to me):
$ git rev-list @{u}..HEAD --format='%G? %H'
commit 9497d347b048dbea7f527624f815f7926594c4bc
error: gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile needs to be configured and exist for ssh signature verification
N 9497d347b048dbea7f527624f815f7926594c4bc
commit 2466c5b3c0f2053b3cdadf4af299aab35e74aa0c
error: gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile needs to be configured and exist for ssh signature verification

commit ded83bc7f31df14b2e9a8d7bdfa1e95eee2bf5c1
error: gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile needs to be configured and exist for ssh signature verification

commit 16d17277c608d995ad4d0b495d029c753509930c
error: gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile needs to be configured and exist for ssh signature verification
N 16d17277c608d995ad4d0b495d029c753509930c
While git log works and is able to retrieve the signatures
$ git log @{u}..HEAD --format='%G? %H'
G 9497d347b048dbea7f527624f815f7926594c4bc
G 2466c5b3c0f2053b3cdadf4af299aab35e74aa0c
G ded83bc7f31df14b2e9a8d7bdfa1e95eee2bf5c1
G 16d17277c608d995ad4d0b495d029c753509930c
I get the error even though I have the following config :
$ git config --list | grep 'allowed'
gpg.ssh.allowedsignersfile=~/.config/git/MY_SIGNER_KEYS
# by the way the actual config entry in ~/.config/git/config is
#
#[gpg "ssh"]
# allowedSignersFile = ~/.config/git/MY_SIGNER_KEYS
$ cat ~/.config/git/MY_SIGNER_KEYS

Am I missing something obvious ? Or is it git rev-list running in such a
context than it can't find the allowedSignersFile ?
Thanks
