gittuf is a platform-agnostic Git security system. The maintainers of a Git repository can use gittuf to protect the contents of a Git repository from unauthorized or malicious changes. Most significantly, gittuf’s policy controls and enforcement is not tied to your source control platform (SCP) or “forge”, meaning any developer can independently verify that a repository’s changes followed the expected security policies. In other words, gittuf removes the forge as a single point of trust in the software supply chain!

gittuf is an incubating project at the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) as part of the Supply Chain Integrity Working Group.

Current Status

gittuf is currently in beta. gittuf's metadata is versioned, and updates should not require reinitializing a repository's gittuf policy. We recommend trying out gittuf in addition to existing repository security mechanisms you may already be using (e.g., forge security policies). We're actively seeking feedback from users, please open an issue with any suggestions or bugs you encounter!
