I've recently came across the signify tool which is the OpenBSD solution to sign and verify files. Excluding GPG, I only knew about minisig to to achieve the same effect.



I'm trying to figure out what are the differences between those two tools since they seem to achieve the same end result, and use the same ed25519 key format, and why should I use one instead of the other.

This question came from our site for software developers, mathematicians and others interested in cryptography.



















  • I'm still researching, and I found this comment from minisig's author news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9709163 It seems they are both compatible, but minisig supports "trusted comments".

  • I'd personally think signify is a better choice, just because it is actively developed and maintained by the OpenBSD folks, not a random guy with a GitHub account.
