The state module git.latest does not allow setting environment variable for us to set the correct GNUPGHOME. The module environ.set does not work as we call git as the normal user and not as root, but may still be the problem of git.latest not respecting environment variables. The problem with always pulling new commits is that it may conflict with the current work the user has done on the repository locally. It will also not work in case the last commit is not signed by a trusted key deployed by the formula, in this case, you should add the key manually to verify the commit. Setting the gpg.program only for the required repositories solves the aforementioned problem and also enhances usability by removing extra commands that the user needs to learn and remember.

qubes-builder
Setup Qubes OS Builder V2 in Qubes OS itself.
Table of Contents
Description
Setup a Builder qube named "qubes-builder" and a disposable template for Qubes Executor named "dvm-qubes-builder". It is possible to use any of the available executors: docker, podman, qubes-executor.
During installation, after cloning the qubes-builderv2 repository, signatures will be verified and the installation will fail if the signatures couldn't be verified. Packages necessary for split operations such as split-gpg2, spit-git and split-ssh-agent will also be installed.
Installation
The template is based on Fedora Minimal and not Debian Minimal due to the Qubes Executor lacking some dependencies on Debian such as mock. Even if the builder qube was Debian based, the executor qube still needs to be a Fedora template.

Access Control
The policy is based on qubes-builderv2/rpc/50-qubesbuilder.policy
.
Extra services added are qubes.Gpg2
, qusal.GitInit
, qusal.GitFetch
,
qusal.GitPush
, qusal.SshAgent
. Necessary services are allowed to have an
unattended build.
Usage
Pulling new commits
The installation will clone the repository but not pull new commits. You will need to pull new commits from time to time, their signature will be automatically verified before merging them to your git index.
Add PGP public key to qubes-builder GPG home directory
If you need to pull commits signed by someone with a key not deployed by default, import their key to the GPG home directory of qubes-builder:
gpg --homedir "$HOME/.gnupg/qubes-builder" --import KEY
Builder configuration
When using the Qubes Executor, configure the builder.yml
dispvm
option to
either dom0
or dvm-qubes-builder
:
include:
- example-configs/desired-config.yml
executor:
type: qubes
options:
dispvm: "dom0"
#dispvm: "dvm-qubes-builder"
Setting the Disposable VM to Dom0 works because it will use the
default_dispvm
preference of qubes-builder
, which is dvm-qubes-builder
.
