Mercury wagon provider - how to configure PGP signatures

Configuration: in order to:

• generate PGP signatures, set all writer properties
• for signature verification. Use reader configuration

To wake up PGP functionality in Mercury wagon, specify -Dmaven.mercury.wagon.pgp.config=property file on the command line. Property file, pointed by this system property, has the following structure:

###########################################
# Mercury wagon provider PGP configuration
###########################################

# path to the file - public keyring with all the public keys that are authorized to sign artifacts 
#reader.keyring=/my/home/.gnupg/pubring.gpg

# path to the file - secret keyring with the signer key 
writer.keyring=/my/home/.gnupg/secring.gpg
# keyId in the keyring - should be *16 hex digits* !
writer.key.id=0EDB5D91141BC4F2
# secret key password
writer.key.pass=mySecretKeyPassword

Please note that reader.keyring and writer.keyring point to an actual keyring file. I used GNUpg tools for Mac for key maintenance - http://www.gnupg.org/
