Git Hub Desktop on Mac, error: cannot run gpg: No

Question

Trying to commit my changes by using GitHub Desktop and getting this:

error: cannot run gpg: No such file or directory

error: could not run gpg.

fatal: failed to write commit object (128)

Firstly that not worked for terminal too and i create gpg-key and plugged in to my GitHub Account Now it's working well in Terminal but Desktop version still not working.

In Oficial doccumentation for GitHub Desktop i found some notation:

Note: GitHub Desktop does not support GPG signing.

Answer 1

Solved it.

So as GitHub Desktop was complaining about not being able to find gpg (I had installed it via homebrew), I figured there should be a way to tell git the exact path of gpg, turns out there is:

gpg.program Use this custom program instead of "gpg" found on $PATH when making or verifying a PGP signature. The program must support the same command-line interface as GPG, namely, to verify a detached signature, "gpg --verify $file - https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config

So running the following solved the problem:

git config --global gpg.program $(which gpg)

GitHub got back to me and said that some users also need to use:

echo "no-tty" >> ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
