Signing Commits using an SSH Key

Source: Signing Git Commits with Your SSH Key

git config --global commit.gpgsign true
git config --global gpg.format ssh
git config --global user.signingkey "<SSH private key identifier>"

Verifying signed commits using SSH keys:

git config --global gpg.ssh.allowedsignersfile=~/.ssh/allowed_signers
touch ~/.ssh/allowed_signers
echo "* <SSH public key identifier>" > ~/.ssh/allowed_signers

Windows

Editor

git config --global core.editor "'C:/Program Files/Notepad++/notepad++.exe' -multiInst -nosession -noPlugin ''"

Linux
