git-sign-off

Add and check git signatures to your repository to check conditions/tasks automatically.

Do you like automation?! So do we!

Check any command success through git sign-off calls in your git pre-commit hooks. On your CI, check that they are up-to-date with a simple git sign-off-check.

This way you can even ensure your fellow developers have their hooks installed and running correctly.

Installation

pip install git-sign-off

This installs programs git-sign-off and git-sign-off-check. Use them directly or through git commands.

Usage

Create certificate

Prove that a command ran successfully locally through:

git sign-off -c bash <run_my_local_sensitive_test.sh>

If the "challenge" command executes successfully a certificate is added to your commit. You will then see the message:

Added git-sign-off signature for task 'default'.

Check certificate

Useful in CI or for other developers:

git sign-off-check

If your certificate is up-to-date you will see:

Signature check for task 'default' passed.

If your certificate is not up-to-date you will have an error like:

SignatureError: Outdated signature found. Latest signature was generated after commit: 5c1537d3502b8bc17172b5a03a4531b010024754

Using pre-commit

An easy way to use git-sign-off is through pre-commit hooks.

To use it first install pre-commit:

pip install pre-commit

Then add a file named .pre-commit-config.yaml to your repo with the hook:

repos:
-   repo: https://github.com/AlbertoEAF/git-sign-off
    rev: master
    hooks:
    -   id: git-sign-off
        args: ["-c", "bash", "<run_my_local_sensitive_test.sh>"]
