Meet oct-git, a new signing and verification tool for use with the distributed version control system:

https://crates.io/crates/openpgp-card-tool-git 🦀

oct-git focuses exclusively on ergonomic use with OpenPGP card-based signing keys

It is designed to be easy to set up, standalone (no long running processes), and entirely hands-off to use (no repeated PIN entry required, by default). It comes with desktop notifications for touch confirmation (if required)

@dvzrv @hko I am waiting for the inevitable aur package openpgp-card-tool-git-git package for straight out of git builds.

oct-git and its sibling project https://crates.io/crates/openpgp-card-ssh-agent are concrete options for OpenPGP card users to explore OpenPGP use without GnuPG, today.

In addition, the "Stateless OpenPGP" tool (https://crates.io/crates/rsop) also supports using OpenPGP card devices (see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dkg-openpgp-stateless-cli/ for more).

oct-git is joint work with the always excellent @wiktor

Thanks to NLNet and @NGIZero for funding work on this project!
