@JustTheHighlights a line pinentry-program /opt/homebrew/bin/pinentry-mac in ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf or can specify inline like $ gpg-agent --pinentry-program=/opt/homebrew/bin/pinentry-mac --daemon

The only step I needed was gpgconf --kill gpg-agent after gpg stopped working when my mac restarted.

Did you mean brew install pinentry-mac?

Add important step to kill pgp-agent, without it, it won't work.

Had the same issue as @RobM did, so just restarted it (gpgconf --kill gpg-agent) and it worked again

Same as @JérémieBoulay but in my case the reason was that OSX's UI crashed during the night without rebooting the base OS apparently (uptime was still 8 days+). Apparently my new login instance wasn't able to contact the running gpg agent and git commit was failing to sign my commits. Again, killing the agent as above fixed the problem.

Oh! It's finally worked after using this command: gpgconf --kill gpg-agent. Maybe the pinentry upgrade wasn't take in account by the previous gpg-agent.

| Mar 2, 2021 at 11:26 | comment | added | Jérémie Boulay | That didn't worked for me. I've the same path saved in gpg-agent.cong.file than the one given by the command which pinentry-mac. | |
