Verifying Commits Locally

1. Import the key Save the public key above to a file (e.g. gitar.gpg) and import it: 
gpg --import gitar.gpg
2. Verify a commit 
git log --show-signature -1 <commit-sha>
A valid signature will show Good signature from "Gitar <...>" in the output.

​
Verified Badge on GitHub / GitLab

Once the hosting platform trusts Gitar’s signing key, commits pushed by Gitar display a Verified badge automatically.
  • GitHub — GitHub shows the badge once the GPG key is associated with the committer’s account. Gitar’s key is registered, so no action is needed on your part.
  • GitLab — GitLab similarly displays a Verified badge for commits signed with a GPG key linked to the committer. No additional setup is required.
If you do not see the Verified badge on a Gitar commit, confirm that the commit’s author email matches the email associated with Gitar’s GPG key.
