Rebase/stash not working after enabling GPG signing

AlecRust April 11, 2016

I've enabled GPG commit signing on the command line, and manually enabled via the "Repository Settings" section of SourceTree for each repo:

If I manually select "Sign commit" each time SourceTree correctly signs my commits:

However any other operation like stash or rebase doesn't seem to include the GPG options in the command and I get the following "gpg: cannot open `/dev/tty': Device not configured" error:

I see you even have a support article about this, but the proposed solution is enabling GPG signing in SourceTree which I've already done.

git config --global gpg.program gpg2

This maybe your answer.

Thanks for your answer Aditya, I'm afraid I already have this set in my config though.

Remove the gpgsign attribute in the [commit] section of your .gitconfig if it's there.

This solved it for me.

Won't that just disable GPG signing of commits by default? I'd like to keep this on, and think SourceTree should respect it.

noplanman June 17, 2016

I have to manually select "Sign Commit" in SourceTree anyways, even with the attribute enabled.

So I think it only takes effect for commits done via Terminal. Have you restarted SourceTree after modifying the config?

AlecRust June 29, 2016

I have, and SourceTree doesn't respect this global git default. I'd rather not remove this since I want all commits to be signed - SourceTree should improve its GPG support.

noplanman July 22, 2016

Absolutely, it would make more sense for them to enhance the software to respect the standards.

Honestly, I've stopped using stashes because of this issue, which is really annoying :-/ The workaround I proposed above is NOT viable at all.

Please Atlassian, make SourceTree work better with GPG!

edit: Check this out, worked perfectly for me!

I'm having the same issue.

Disabling the key signing for the repository also doesn't help, I can't stash anything any more!

 

Any news on this?
