INTRODUCTION
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Install as `git-remote-gcrypt` in $PATH
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Supports local, ssh:// and sftp:// remotes at the moment,
|
|
||||||
as well as the special gitception://<giturl> remote type::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
git remote add gcryptrepo gcrypt::ssh://hostname.com:MyNewRepo
|
|
||||||
( or maybe:
|
|
||||||
git remote add gcryptrepo gcrypt::gitception://git://host.com/repo.git
|
|
||||||
)
|
|
||||||
git push --all gcryptrepo
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
DESIGN GOALS
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+ Confidential, authenticated git storage and collaboration on any
|
|
||||||
untrusted file host or service. The only information we (by necessity)
|
|
||||||
leak is the approximate size and timing of updates.
|
|
||||||
PLEASE help me evaluate how well we meet this design goal!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
CONFIGURATION
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+ You must set up a small gpg keyring for the repository::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
gpg --export KEYID1 > <path-to-keyring>
|
|
||||||
git config gcrypt.keyring <path-to-keyring>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
New repositories will be set up to allow access for the keys in
|
|
||||||
`gcrypt.keyring`. The keyring is used to verify the authenticity of the
|
|
||||||
repository when it is read or written to.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+ NOTE: We use the user's gnupg configuration for `cipher-algo` and so on!
|
|
||||||
Configure your gnupg to use strong crypto -- see `man gpg`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
REPOSITORY FORMAT
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+ The manifest is signed+encrypted using `gpg -se` (with hidden recipients)
|
|
||||||
and stored on the remote.
|
|
||||||
+ The manifest contains the list of branches and packfiles.

Each packfile P is stored as P' = Encrypt(K,P) and named SHA224(P')
|
|
||||||
L is the list of names of P'.
|
|

|
|

|

To read the repository
|
|

|
|
||||||
decrypt+verify Manifest using private key -> (K, B, L)
|
|
||||||
for each packfile P' in L:
|

verify P' matches its hash
|
|
||||||
decrypt P' using K -> P -> open P with git
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Only packs mentioned in L are downloaded.

Introduction
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install as `git-remote-gcrypt` in `$PATH`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Supports local, ssh:// and sftp:// remotes at the moment, as well as
|
||||||
|
the special gitception://<giturl> remote type, using any existing git
|
||||||
|
repository as backend.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Example use::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
gpg --export KEY1 KEY2 > $PWD/.git/keyring.gpg
|
||||||
|
git config --path gcrypt.keyring $PWD/.git/keyring.gpg
|
||||||
|
git remote add cryptremote gcrypt::ssh://example.com:repo
|
||||||
|
git push cryptremote master
|
||||||
|
> gcrypt: Setting up new repository at ssh://example.com:repo
|
||||||
|
> gcrypt: Repository ID is 99b45a84a13168fc5efe
|
||||||
|
> gcrypt: Repository URL is gcrypt::ssh://example.com:repo/G/99b45a84a13168fc5efe
|
||||||
|
> gcrypt: (configuration for cryptremote updated)
|
||||||
|
> [ more lines .. ]
|
||||||
|
> To gcrypt::[...]
|
||||||
|
> * [new branch] master -> master
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The generated Repository ID is not secret, it only exists to ensure that
|
||||||
|
two repositories signed by the same user can not be (maliciously) switched
|
||||||
|
around. It incidentally allows multiple repositories to all share location.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Share the updated Repository URL with everyone in the keyring.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Design Goals
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Confidential, authenticated git storage and collaboration on any
|
||||||
|
untrusted file host or service. The only information we (by necessity)
|
||||||
|
leak is the approximate size and timing of updates.
|
||||||
|
PLEASE help me evaluate how well we meet this design goal!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Configuration
|
||||||
|
-------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ You must set up a small gpg keyring for the repository::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
gpg --export KEYID1 > <path-to-keyring>
|
||||||
|
git config gcrypt.keyring <path-to-keyring>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ NOTE: We use the user's gnupg configuration for `cipher-algo` and so on!
|
||||||
|
Check your keys and key preferences, see `man gpg`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ All readers of the repository must have their pubkey included in
|
||||||
|
the keyring used when pushing. All writers must have the complete
|
||||||
|
set of pubkeys available. You can commit the keyring to the repo,
|
||||||
|
further key management features do not yet exist.
|
||||||

Repository Format
|
||||||
|
-----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Protocol sketch::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
EncSign(X) is sign+encrypt to a PGP key holder
|
||||||
|
Encrypt(K,X) is symmetric encryption
|
||||||
|
Hash(X) is SHA-224
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
K: master key, generated once, 128 bytes
|
||||||
|
B: branch list
|
||||||
|
L: list of packfile hashes
|
||||||
|
R: Hash(Repository ID)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Store Manifest as EncSign(K || B || L || R) in filename R
|
||||||
|
Each packfile P is stored as P' = Encrypt(K,P) in filename Hash(P')
|
||||||
|
L is the list of Hash(P').
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To read the repository
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
decrypt+verify Manifest using private key -> (K, B, L, R)
|
||||||
|
verify R matches Hash(Requested Repository ID)
|
||||||
|
for each entry in L:
|
||||||
|
get the entry from the server -> P'
|
||||||
|
verify Hash(P') matches the entry in L
|
||||||
|
decrypt P' using K -> P -> open P with git
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Only packs mentioned in L are downloaded.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ The manifest looks like this::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ gpg -d < 9f42017de5cb482e509ff147d54ceeb0413d6379717f3f0db770f00a
