CACHE
-------
+-----
All cache ttl values are in minutes. Negative ttl values indicate that a page
type will never expire, and thus the first time a URL is accessed, the result
Conversely, when a ttl value is zero, the cache is disabled for that
particular page type, and the page type is never cached.
+SIGNATURES
+----------
+
+Cgit can host .asc signatures corresponding to various snapshot formats,
+through use of git notes. For example, the following command may be used to
+add a signature to a .tar.xz archive:
+
+ git notes --ref=refs/notes/signatures/tar.xz add -C "$(
+ gpg --output - --armor --detach-sign cgit-1.1.tar.xz |
+ git hash-object -w --stdin
+ )" v1.1
+
+If it is instead desirable to attach a signature of the underlying .tar, this
+will be linked, as a special case, beside a .tar.* link that does not have its
+own signature. For example, a signature of a tarball of the latest tag might
+be added with a similar command:
+
+ tag="$(git describe --abbrev=0)"
+ git notes --ref=refs/notes/signatures/tar add -C "$(
+ git archive --format tar --prefix "cgit-${tag#v}/" "$tag" |
+ gpg --output - --armor --detach-sign |
+ git hash-object -w --stdin
+ )" "$tag"
+
+Since git-archive(1) is expected to produce stable output between versions,
+this allows one to generate a long-term signature of the contents of a given
+tag.
