Branching Out: `sq` Grows a Certificate Store, and More Convenient Trust Management
I’ve just released a new version of sq
, our general-purpose
command-line tool for Sequoia PGP, and it’s packed full of exciting,
user-visible changes. In line with our goal of providing great
end-to-end authentication, this release of sq
moves from working
exclusively in a stateless manner to including a full PKI, and a local
certificate store. It also adds a new high-level trust management
interface, sq link
. sq link
builds on the web of trust, but uses
concepts from address book management, which hopefully makes it easier
for end users to understand.
