How to set up Git GPG signed commits

1. Generate GPG key

https://help.github.com/articles/generating-a-new-gpg-key/

  • PS: During latest setup homebrew ended up installing gpg as gpg2, that requires some very minor tweaks and of course making sure the commands use gpg2 instead of gpg
  • PS2: Make sure to save key to 1 Password or equivalent

2. Add key to Github account

https://help.github.com/articles/adding-a-new-gpg-key-to-your-github-account/

3. Add key to .gitconfig

https://help.github.com/articles/telling-git-about-your-gpg-key/

PS: If setup is using gpg2, also runs:

git config --global gpg.program gpg2
