Methods of Signing Git Commits on MacOS

Last updated March 13, 2024

This Gist explains how to sign commits using gpg in a step-by-step fashion. Previously, krypt.co was heavily mentioned, but I've only recently learned they were acquired by Akamai and no longer update their previous free products. Those mentions have been removed.

Additionally, 1Password now supports signing Git commits with SSH keys and makes it pretty easy-plus you can easily configure Git Tower to use it for both signing and ssh.

For using a GUI-based GIT tool such as Tower or Github Desktop, follow the steps here for signing your commits with GPG.

DEPRECATED as of macOS 10.13 (High Sierra). See the new GUIDE to install nvm and yarn for macOS (updated July 2019)

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Solution

This solution fixes the error caused by trying to run npm update npm -g. Once you're finished, you also won't need to use sudo to install npm modules globally.

#Understanding closures, callbacks and promises

For a code newbie like myself, callbacks, closures and promises are scary JavaScript concepts.

10 months into my full-time dev career, and I would struggle to explain these words to a peer.

So I decided it was time to face my fears, and try to get my head around each concept.

Here are the notes from my initial reading. I'll continue to refine them as my understanding improves.

Writing template strings in Markdown

With template strings coming to ES6, the backtick (`) means something in Markdown and in JavaScript. If you write this:

To display a message, write `alert(`hello world!`)`.

it'll render like this:

To display a message, write alert(hello world!).

	// routes.js
	const routes = [
	{
	path: '/',
	component: Home,
	exact: true
	},
	{
	path: '/gists',
	component: Gists

	// Get all users
	var url = "http://localhost:8080/api/v1/users";
	var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
	xhr.open('GET', url, true)
	xhr.onload = function () {
	var users = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
	if (xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == "200") {
	console.table(users);
	} else {
	console.error(users);
