How to Verify Git Commits on GitHub Using GPG Keychain Mac OS

Yasin Dehfuli | یاسین دهفولی — Mon, 04 Aug 2025 20:48:43 +0000

Verifying your Git commits builds trust and shows authenticity. On GitHub, verified commits display a “Verified” badge to signal they were signed with a trusted GPG key.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to setting it up on macOS using the GPG Keychain app.

Prerequisites

macOS
GPG Suite installed (includes GPG Keychain)
Git installed
GitHub account

Step 1: Generate a GPG Key Using GPG Keychain

Open GPG Keychain
Click the “New” button.
Fill in your:
Name (should match your GitHub name
Email (must match the email you use in your Git commits)
Key Type: RSA and RSA (default)
Key Length: 4096 bits (recommended)
Expiration date: Optional
Click “Create Key” and wait until the key is generated.

Step 2: Export Your Public Key

Right-click your new key and select “Copy”.

Step 3: Add the GPG Key to GitHub

Go to GitHub → Settings → SSH and GPG Keys.
Click “New GPG Key”.
Paste the copied key (or the contents of your exported .asc file).
Click “Add GPG Key”.

Step 4: Configure Git to Sign Commits

Find your GPG key ID:
gpg --list-secret-keys --keyid-format LONG
Look for the line that looks like this:
sec rsa4096/ABCD1234EFGH5678 ..
Then configure Git:
git config --global user.signingkey ABCD1234EFGH5678 git config --global commit.gpgsign true
Set Git to use GPG (this path may vary):
git config --global gpg.program $(which gpg)

Step 5: Make a Signed Commit

git commit -S -m "Your signed commit message"

Push your code to GitHub. If everything is set up correctly, GitHub will show a Verified badge next to your commit.
