Was wondering if any developers has had any luck configuring the newly introduced https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh for any WSL2 work? This thing is incredible and works seamlessly! Would love to configure it for my WSL instances.

For some context, I've been using https://github.com/buptczq/WinCryptSSHAgent to configure & forward SSH_AUTH_SOCK from WSL to-and-from Windows Certificates. This works only for x509 certs on the PC or on smartcards.

@ChrisL8 Storing it in WSL should work if the allowed signers path is an absolute path. What does git config gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile return? And what's the error message that you're seeing?

I found if I call git.exe from Windows, then it works, which is interesting. I don't think this is a good solution though, just a data point to consider.

WSL Linux git fails:
