CommitGuard is a GitHub Action that verifies if all commits in a pull request are signed-off by the committer. It ensures that every commit is Signed-off, indicating the committer is trusted contributor.

In software development projects, ensuring the integrity of codebases is essential for maintaining high level of security. However, manually checking each commit in a pull request can be time-consuming and error-prone. CommitGuard automates this process, providing a reliable way to enforce commit signing requirements.

CommitGuard runs as a GitHub Action in response to pull request events. When triggered, it checks each commit in the pull request to ensure it contains a commit.verification.verified = true object. If any commits are missing the required sign-off, the action fails, and the pull request is marked as non-compliant. Furthermore, the action will comment on the pull request, telling the assignee about the violation.

The Action will comment on the scanned PR if it detectes any unsigned commits. Example:
