Show HN: GitProof – Cryptographic authorship and evidence certificates for Git

Category: security

Tags: git, cryptography, provenance, timestamping, supply-chain

Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 6, Documentation: 7, Utility: 5)

GitProof provides cryptographic authorship attestations for Git repositories by combining Ed25519 signatures, SHA-256 Merkle trees, and RFC 3161 timestamping to create tamper-evident proof of code provenance. The open verifier and specification aim to make these attestations independently auditable for legal and due diligence contexts.

Target audience: security engineers, legal/compliance teams, devops, open-source maintainers
