Cannot git commit using GPG signing
Cannot git commit using GPG signing
-
GPG signing can verify that this git commit is actually the person who claims who he/she is.
-
After logout and log back,
git commit
displayed
error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object
- To solve this I found:
echo "test" | gpg --clearsign
# Which outputs:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
test
gpg: signing failed: No pinentry
gpg: [stdin]: clear-sign failed: No pinentry
- Therefore, I used
which pinentry-mac
to find the path of pinentry, but the path is already in~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf
. - Solution:
gpgconf --kill gpg-agent # Restart gpg-agent
