[question] Why does jj diff require signing ssh-agent?

[ggirelli]

I am just wondering why running jj diff requires me to sign through the ssh agent. I find that a bit surprising tbh, what am I missing?

My config related to commit signing is the following, not sure if related at all:

signing.behavior = "own"
signing.backend = "ssh"
signing.key = "<something>"
signing.backends.ssh.program = "/opt/1Password/op-ssh-sign"
git.sign-on-push = true

The repo I am working on is colocated, and clone via HTTPS:

jj git clone <https-address> --colocate

I'm late, but sign-on-push is apparently meant to be used with .behavior = "drop", i.e. drop signatures when touching commits and only sign on pushing.

I think got that from https://docs.jj-vcs.dev/latest/config/#automatically-signing-commits

Thank you! I will try this out 🙏🏻
