GPG verification

About GPG verification in {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %}

After you enable GPG verification, {% data variables.product.company_short %} will automatically sign commits you make in {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %}, and the commits will have a verified status on {% data variables.product.product_name %}. For more information about {% data variables.product.product_name %}-signed commits, see "AUTOTITLE."

By default, GPG verification is disabled for codespaces you create. If you enable GPG verification, your commits are signed in repositories that you trust.

{% data reusables.codespaces.settings-sync-and-gpg %}

For more information about managing your preferences for Settings Sync, see "AUTOTITLE."

{% note %}

Note: If you have linked a dotfiles repository with {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %}, the Git configuration in your dotfiles may conflict with the configuration that {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %} requires to sign commits. For more information, see "AUTOTITLE."
