Verification of commit author or other verification of pushing user

Added by Udo Offermann over 11 years ago

We have all our central Git repositories hooked up with Redmine and everything is working really great, including push permission control via the Redmine user management. However one problem still stands out: As long as a user is allowed to push changes, there seems to be no further checking that the author reported in the Git commits has any relationship with the user who does the push (and is checked via his the Redmine account).

It would be great, if (for a regular development user) there was a way to verify that the commit author of new changes pushed into the repository matches the Redmine user name (and/or email) so that the central history is more trustworthy in terms of who did what and more normalized (no user with n different git configured names).

Is that possible with today's Redmine - Git integration?

Or, if not, do you know of something that would help make "push tracking" possible?

Thanks,
Henning
