Git commit signing: Code we can trust?

But what about our own code?

When we deploy to production, how do we know we can trust it?

What if someone pushes a hack to our github?

Will CI still push it to production?

It turns out Git has a cool feature that can help us trust the code we deploy. We'll discuss Git Commit Signing, how it can help us, and what downsides it may have.
