Verifying the integrity of a release

You can avoid tampering and accidental changes by ensuring the releases you use have not been modified after publication.

Примечание.

Immutable releases are currently in public preview and subject to change.

Prerequisites

Before you can validate the authenticity of a release and its assets on the command line, you need to install the GitHub CLI.

Verifying immutable releases and local artifacts

  1. On the command line, open the repository containing the release you want to verify.

  2. To verify a release exists and is immutable, run the following command:

    Bash
    gh release verify RELEASE-TAG
    
  3. To verify a local artifact is an exact match for a release asset, run the following command:

    Bash
    gh release verify-asset RELEASE-TAG ARTIFACT-PATH
    

    Примечание.

    This command cannot be used to verify the source code zip file or tarball for a release, since these assets are only created when a download is requested.

  1. На GitHubперейдите на главную страницу репозитория.

  2. Справа от списка файлов щелкните Выпуски.

    Снимок экрана: главная страница репозитория. Ссылка, помеченная как "Выпуски", выделена оранжевым контуром.

  3. To the left of the release you want to verify, below the release author, confirm that " Immutable" is present.
