Re: Commit signing

Hi,

It is certainly true that signed commits /is/ a feature.  And it's a

(Note: it doesn't matter enough to me that I would put the time in, I'm 
arguing in the abstract really - should features be kept out because 
they allow a development method we would find distasteful?)

You gave the answer yourself: until there is somebody who needs it, I 
guess it will not be there.

Note that it would be relatively easy: I already gave the location where 
the hook should go (builtin-commit-tree.c, line 151), and you can see an 
example how to execute a hook in receive-pack.c, lines 67ff.

Ciao,

P.S.: Yes, I am encouraging you to implement it.
