Git + Python
Automate Git from Python — diffs, hooks, release tags, and repo housekeeping.
Git Signing in Python
Sign and verify Git commits with a mock GPG implementation using HMAC and SHA-256.
import hashlib
import hmac
class GPGMock:
def __init__(self, secret_key):
self.secret_key = secret_key.encode()
def sign_commit(self, commit_message):
"""Mock GPG signing by computing an HMAC of the commit message."""
signature = hmac.new(self.secret_key, commit_message.encode(), hash…Verify Git tag signatures with HMAC in Python
Create and verify deterministic HMAC-SHA256 signatures for git tags using the Python standard library.
import hashlib
import hmac
def sign_tag(tag: str, secret_key: str) -> str:
"""Create a deterministic HMAC signature for a tag."""
message = tag.encode("utf-8")
key = secret_key.encode("utf-8")
return hmac.new(key, message, hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
