t: increase test coverage of signature verification output There weren't any tests for unsuccessful signature verification of signed merge tags shown in 'git log'. There also weren't any tests for the GPG output from 'git fmt-merge-msg'. This was noticed while investigating a buggy refactor that slipped through the test suite; see commit 72b006f4bfd30b7c5037c163efaf279ab65bea9c. This commit adds signature verification tests to the 'log' and 'fmt-merge-msg' builtins. Thanks to Linus Torvalds for reporting and finding the (now reverted) commit that introduced the regression. Note that the "log --show-signature for merged tag with GPG failure" test case is really hacky. It relies on an implementation detail of verify_signed_buffer() -- namely, it assumes that the signature is written to a temporary file whose path is under TMPDIR. The rationale for that test case is to check whether the code path that yields the "No signature" message is reachable on failure. The functionality in log-tree.c that may show this message does some pre-parsing of a possible signature that prevents the GPG interface from being invoked if a signature is actually missing. And I haven't been able to construct a signature that both 1. satisfies that pre-processing, and 2. causes GPG to fail without any sort of output on stderr along the lines of "this is a bogus/corrupt/... signature" (the "No signature" message should only be shown if GPG produce no output).

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
