GPG support? (like SSH)

Would it be possible to add similar support for GPG keys?

To all the +1'ers in this thread: it would be helpful if you could also describe what you're doing now that requires GPG.

Signing code commits and releases is my primary use case.

I think it has all been mentioned before on this thread, but here it does:

  • File encryption (e.g. for archiving sensitive information)
  • Git comment signing (we prefer it over signing with SSH keys)
  • Email encryption/signing

I would love to see support for GPG!

As previously stated by some, I use GPG for signing commits with GIT (I also prefer it over SSH keys).

What are the benefits you're seeing of using GPG over SSH for commit signing?

GPG keys exist in a web of trust outside of the specific platform that I am using to host my code.

@floris_1P

top of my head:

  • key servers for verification, web of trust (an SSH commit signature by itself means nothing, if I don't know the key)
  • existing workflows based on GPG
  • subkeys

+1 for this. Even with SSH signing I'd love GPG support for email among other things. It would beat adding my key as a file.

Chiming in to echo that I'd love GPG support!
