        <p>
          Generating a GnuPg key can take a long time. To speed up the process, #
          it actually helps to use your computer for other things, which helps #
          generate random numbers that keep the GnuPg key secure.

          So if this is taking too long, go play a game or something!
webapp gpg key generation Now the webapp can generate a gpg key that is dedicated for use by git-annex. Since the key is single use, much of the complexity of generating gpg keys is avoided. Note that the key has no password, because gpg-agent is not available everywhere the assistant is installed. This is not a big security problem because the key is going to live on the same disk as the git annex repository, so an attacker with access to it can look directly in the repository to see the same files that get stored in the encrypted repository on the removable drive. There is no provision yet for backing up keys. This commit sponsored by Robert Beaty. 2013-09-17 19:36:15 +00:00			`<div .modal .fade #genkeymodal>`

assistant: When generating a gpg secret key, avoid hardcoding the key algorithm and size This aims to future-proof gpg key generation. OpenPGP is in flux with a conflict over standards ongoing. It seems not unlikely that different systems will have different gpg commands that support different algorithms. This also simplifies the code by using the --quick-gen-key interface rather than the experimental batch interface. It seems less likely that --quick-gen-key will break than an experimental interface (whose documentation I can no longer find). --quick-gen-key is supported since gpg 2.1.0 (2014).
