It does signs the complete changeset hash including the commit message, username, etc, and it does this without creating an extra changeset. This is done by computing what the changeset hash would be without an embedded signature. This hash is then signed and embedded in the changeset. This is similar to how TCP checksums are computed. This increases the size of each changeset by about 2 KB of data which cannot be compressed -- this adds up over time and I would only advice people to use the extension if they are very paranoid or have special legal requirements. -- Martin Geisler Mercurial links: http://mercurial.ch/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
