I'm trying to setup an AOSP repository with the repo init
command, however I get a signature checking error (I edited out all the actual names and object IDs):
repo: error: "git" failed with exit status 1
cwd: /aoap/.repo/repo
cmd: ['git', 'tag', '-v', 'v1.12.16']
stdout:
>> object 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567
>> type commit
>> tag v1.12.16
>> tagger Foo Bar <[email protected]> 0123456789 -0700
>>
>> repo 1.12.16
stderr:
>> gpg: Signature made gio 31 feb 2022, 12:34:56 CEST
>> gpg: using RSA key 0123456789ABCDEF
>> gpg: Can't check signature: No public key
fatal: cloning the git-repo repository failed, will remove '.repo/repo'
Is there a way to skip or disable the GPG signature check (for this repo init
, or even globally for git
)?
CodePudding user response:
Check first if a global config (just for the time of the repo init command) would help
git config --global tag.gpgSign false
git config --global commit.gpgSign false
If this is not working (since it is likely for creating tag/commit, rather than checking them), check the configuration gpg.program
By replacing it with a script which always return 0, you might (again just for the repo init
) bypass any gpg check
git config --global gpg.program myGpg
With myGpg
an executable bash script on the $PATH% with
#!/bin/bash
exit 0
