Adds a Signed commits section to this repo's CONTRIBUTING, per owner ruling D218. The estate policy is docs/SIGNING-POLICY.adoc in hyperpolymath/standards.

This repo's default branch is covered by the zero-bypass Require-Signed-Commits ruleset, and rebase-merge is off. The section tells contributors what that requires:

  • People and interactive agents sign with an SSH signing key.
  • Apps, bots and workflows write through the API, so GitHub signs their commits.
  • PRs are merged with squash.

If the file already had its own signing section, that section is replaced in place instead of adding a second one. Lines elsewhere that told people to sign with GPG are changed to match the policy (SSH for people).

This is a docs-only change. The commit was created through createCommitOnBranch, so GitHub signs it.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added guidance requiring commits to the default branch to be signed, with setup options for people, agents and automated tools.
    • Clarified that pull requests must be squash-merged; unsigned commits block merging and rebase merging is unavailable.

Walkthrough

The contribution guide adds signed-commit requirements for commits reaching the default branch. It describes signing methods for people, interactive agents, apps, bots and workflows, and specifies squash-only pull request merging.

Changes

Commit signing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Signing and merge guidance
.github/CONTRIBUTING.md
The guide requires signed commits, specifies signing methods by actor type, and states that pull requests must use squash merging. It notes that unsigned commits block merging and rebase merging is disabled.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~4 minutes

Change: Other

Suggested reviewers: metadatastician

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 7c1a3

The guide adds signing and merge instructions without changing product behavior. No supported issue prevents merging; the repository-specific settings it describes should remain accurate.

Architecture Summary

Architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7c1a3

The changed surface does not map to a changed system, dependency edge, entrypoint, or external dependency.

Changed systems: None identified.

No architecture-level concerns identified.

Review details

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in .github/CONTRIBUTING.md: Added signed-commit requirements and instructions: people and interactive agents use a registered GitHub SSH signing key and verified committer email; apps, bots and workflows create commits through the API rather than pushing local commits. PRs must be squash-merged because the ruleset checks every branch commit; unsigned commits block merging, while rebase-merge is disabled.

A rabbit checks each commit’s mark,
Then signs its work before the dark.
A squash brings branches into line,
No unsigned hops cross the design.
The guide now shows the way ahead.
