SQ(1) User Commands SQ(1) NAME sq-sign - Sign messages or data files SYNOPSIS sq sign [OPTIONS] FILE DESCRIPTION Sign messages or data files. Creates signed messages or detached signatures. Detached signatures are often used to sign software packages. The converse operation is `sq verify`. `sq sign` respects the reference time set by the top-level `--time` argu- ment. When set, it uses the specified time instead of the current time, when determining what keys are valid, and it sets the signature's creation time to the reference time instead of the current time. OPTIONS Subcommand options --append Append a signature to existing signature --binary Emit binary data --cleartext Create a cleartext-signed message --merge=SIGNED-MESSAGE Merge signatures from the input and SIGNED-MESSAGE --message Create an inline-signed message --mode=MODE Select the signature mode Signatures can be made in binary mode or in text mode. Text mode normalizes line endings, which makes signatures more robust when a text is transported over a channel which may change line endings. In doubt, create binary signatures. [default: binary] [possible values: binary, text] --notarize Sign a message and all existing signatures --output=FILE Write to FILE or stdout if omitted [default: -] --signature-file=SIG Create a detached signature file --signature-notation NAME VALUE Add a notation to the signature A user-defined notation's name must be of the form `name@a.do- main.you.control.org`. If the notation's name starts with a `!`, then the notation is marked as being critical. If a consumer of a signature doesn't understand a critical notation, then it will ig- nore the signature. The notation is marked as being human readable. --signer=FINGERPRINT|KEYID Create the signature using the key with the specified fingerprint or key ID --signer-email=EMAIL Create the signature using the key where a user ID includes the specified email address --signer-file=PATH Create the signature using the key read from PATH --signer-self Sign using your default signer keys This adds the certificates listed in the configuration file under `sign.signer-self` to the list of signer keys. Currently, the list of keys to be added is empty. --signer-userid=USERID Create the signature using the key with the specified user ID FILE Read from FILE or stdin if FILE is '-' [default: -] Global options See sq(1) for a description of the global options. EXAMPLES Create a signed message. sq sign --signer-file juliet-secret.pgp --message document.txt Create a detached signature. sq sign --signer-file juliet-secret.pgp \ --signature-file=document.txt.sig document.txt SEE ALSO sq(1).
