And I > do. "git push --tags" may be a bit too much. A lieutenant can just push that signed tag being requested to get pulled and nothing else. And after the integrator responds to the request, the signed tag can be removed from the publishing repository of the requestor to keep namespace clean and neat. > See > https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/14/543 > > that I sent to Ted about how it ends up looking - you can check out > that commit 2240a7bb479c with "git show" and "git cat-file commit" to > see how your signature would be archived and saved without actually > being bothersome when just looking at the history. This falls into a shameless plug category, but at http://goo.gl/3OImV there is my write-up on the whole workflow. We would need to add some Porcelain support for third-party (as opposed to the integrator who is resonding to the pull request and verifies the signed tag himself) auditors, by the way. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
