@mterhar you should be good to go: https://codercom-nhj9c7za9-codercom.vercel.app/docs/coder/v1.20/guides/customization/gpg-forwarding |

@khorne3 This is validated and I've tested it with my yubikey and made some troubleshooting tips for the next version. I did apparently ruin the linting though :-( |

One of the recent major pushes for government contractors and other software-supply-chain sensitive organizations is to sign all commits to be sure they're coming from the right people and going through the right process to get integrated into the codebase.
Adding GPG injection in the same way as Coder does SSH key management may work for some users but if they're using a smart card or yubikey, GPG forwarding is needed.
Configuration of GPG forwarding is fragile and has a lot of moving pieces so this guide is intended to help users line up those pieces effectively.
