You have installed GPG, then tried to commit and suddenly you see this error message after it:
error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object
For understanding what's going on, first check what git is doing:
GIT_TRACE=1 git rebase --continue
With that you can see what the problem can be. And what GPG is doing: Probably you will see something like this
10:37:22.346480 run-command.c:637 trace: run_command: gpg --status-fd=2 -bsau <your GPG key>
(Check if your GPG key is correct)
Repeat that gpg command again in the command line:
gpg --status-fd=2 -bsau <your GPG key>
We can have many problems, but I list what I found:
- It could be that the GPG key was expired: https://stackoverflow.com/a/47561300/532912
- Another thing could be that the secret key was not set (the message says
gpg: signing failed: No secret key
). It means that is not finding the key that was set (it happened to me because I preppended a number).
Hope it helps!
