  • Bug#1108267: git-debpush should allow selecting the key to sign with

    I suggest that we change git-debpush to honour DEBSIGN_KEYID in the environment (as debsign does) and call this bug done. It would
    override git config and the default, but be overridden by -u.

    I misread the debsign docs. I mean DEB_SIGN_KEYID in the envirionment
    as dpkg-buildpackage does. (DEBSIGN_KEYID is only in ~/.devscripts.)

    What is blocking us here is the fact that we don't really know other
    people's use cases, and we've got hung up on DEBEMAIL etc. We think
    we know Andrej's use case. (I spoke to Andrej about this irl.)

    I suggest that we change git-debpush to honour DEBSIGN_KEYID in the
    environment (as debsign does) and call this bug done. It would
    override git config and the default, but be overridden by -u.

    I think this doesn't prevent us possiby honouring DEBEMAIL and
    DEBFULLNAME later (for tagger field, or key selectdion).

    Sean, does this SGTY?

    Ian.

    Yes, I think this is okay. We should probably be willing to change our
    mind with an incompatible change if it turns out this is the wrong
    default for large numbers of people.
