Robert Hensing 9fc82de493 signing.sh: Revert test improvement because it fails on GHA + macOS 2023-07-07 15:37:09 +02:00
Robert Hensing fefb947132 tests/signing.sh: Check signature checking error message
We should check error messages, so that we know the command fails for
the right reason.
Alternatively, a mere typo can run the test undetected.

John Ericson a2a8cb10ac Dodge "trusted" vs "trustworthy" by being explicit
Hopefully this is best!

John Ericson 752f967c0f "valid signature" -> "trustworthy signature"
I just had a colleague get confused by the previous phrase for good
reason. "valid" sounds like an *objective* criterion, e.g. and *invalid
signature* would be one that would be trusted by no one, e.g. because it
misformatted or something.

What is actually going is that there might be a signature which is
perfectly valid to *someone else*, but not to the user, because they
don't trust the corresponding public key. This is a *subjective*
criterion, because it depends on the arbitrary and personal choice of
which public keys to trust.

I therefore think "trustworthy" is a better adjective to use. Whether
something is worthy of trust is clearly subjective, and then "trust"
within that word nicely evokes `trusted-public-keys` and friends.

Add tests for verifying/copying content-addressed paths
These don't require signatures.

binary-cache-public-keys -> trusted-public-keys
The name had become a misnomer since it's not only for substitution
from binary caches, but when adding/copying any
(non-content-addressed) path to a store.
