GPG sign commits #97

Description

@nbigaouette

All my commits are required to be signed at work. It would be awesome to be able to commit directly in gitui; for now I can stage files/hunk and commit using git directly.

Thanks!

    Hi @nbigaouette thanks for your interest in the project. I did not even know that feature existed 🙈. I am going to need support by someone having experience with using signing in git for this.

    Yes. I saw that after I commented. Hence the deletion of the comment. Sorry for that. 😇

    @nils-a But as you can see in the PR it is non trivial and could use some support, so if you want to chime in...
    so to your initial question: I posted references for people to pick up. as usual in open source: when you want something done - do it :)

    How about signing with SSH key?

    AFAIK, it is much less popular than gpg signing.

    I disagree. We simply don't know IMO.

    This is merged, please everyone give the recent master a try to make the next release rock solid!

    @storopoli

    This works just tested on master with the default config (I haven't installed gitui or tried out since GPG-signing is a must for me).
    Looking forward for a tag release so I can ditch lazygit.

    Hey everyone in case you were hesitant to test this by having to build from source, please use our new nightly releases to give it a spin: https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui/blob/master/NIGHTLIES.md

    I am happy to report that the nightly gitui.exe was compatible with my signed commit on Windows! (The link to the windows versions in nightlies.md is wrong but that's really a footnote here).

    @mlabbe thanks for the hint, fixed the windows links

    @mlabbe

    I can also report that this worked for me on my Linux workstation.

    Is there a way to automatically sign commits? Everytime it requires me to enter my gpg passkey

    Probably if the pinentry program saves the password for some time
