upgraded to git 2.40.0 on homebrew and 1Password quit signing, throws error

➜ .brew-file git:(main) ✗ git commit -a -m "update"
error: error: Found argument '-U' which wasn't expected, or isn't valid in this context

If you tried to supply `-U` as a value rather than a flag, use `-- -U`

USAGE:
op-ssh-sign [OPTIONS] -Y [--] [payload]

For more information try --help

fatal: failed to write commit object

NOTE: if i remove git from homebrew and use the Apple supplied git, it all works. But this means i'm running an older version of git for everything...

    @rstolpe Does it work when you try to commit from the terminal?

    floris_1P how? I did enter export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=~/Library/Group\ Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock in terminal but that did not work with vscode.
    It complained that it can't find the key after I did remove it from the configuration file.

    "Git: Couldn't find key in agent?" is the error message.

    I'm kind of a spot here now as I ened to fix a bug in my code.

    We're working on a fix for this. For now, what you can do as a workaround is comment out the gpg.ssh.program line in your .gitconfig and set SSH_AUTH_SOCK yourself:

    On macOS:

    export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=~/Library/Group\ Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock

    If you want to use it with a GUI application, you can launch it from the terminal session which has SSH_AUTH_SOCK set, e.g.

    open -a /Applications/Tower.app

    We'll keep you posted for when the fix is out.

    Same https://1password.community/discussion/138743/problems-with-some-ssh-git-interaction. Is there any way to specify a path to the git binary for (just) this operation, until there’s a fix?

    Same issue here. Happened as soon as I upgraded to git 2.40.0 (homebrew).

    the current version of git supplied by apple is:

    ➜ ~ git --version
    git version 2.37.1 (Apple Git-137.1)
