Git credentials in Windows

Windows uses Credential Manager to store git credentials (Control Panel \ Credential Manager).

Check with git config --list to see if credential.helper=manager.

Signatures in log

Using option format:<format-string> with %G? format-string show signature status for commits:

• G for a good (valid) signature
• B for a bad signature
• U for a good signature with unknown validity
• X for a good signature that has expired
• Y for a good signature made by an expired key
• R for a good signature made by a revoked key
• E if the signature cannot be checked (e.g. missing key) and “N” for no signature

e.g. with prettylog = log --graph --pretty=format:'%C(red)%h%C(reset) -%C(yellow)%d%C(reset) %s %C(green)(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an %G?>%C(reset)' --abbrev-commit --date=relative will result something like:
