Repositories Allowing Unsigned Commits

Overview

The Repositories Allowing Unsigned Commits widget tracks repositories that don't require commit signing. This security measure is important for verifying the authenticity of code changes and maintaining a trusted development environment.

Security Perspective

• Code Authenticity: Ensures all commits are cryptographically verified

• Author Verification: Prevents impersonation in commit history

• Audit Trail: Maintains reliable records of code changes

Operational Perspective

• Change Tracking: Improves accountability in development processes

• Compliance Management: Helps meet security requirements for code authenticity

• Trust Enhancement: Builds confidence in code source and integrity

How to Use

1. Review repositories that allow unsigned commits

2. Set up GPG key infrastructure for developers

3. Enable commit signing requirements in branch protection rules

4. Monitor compliance with signing requirements
