"git pull" will at least tell you something is seriously wrong (if you know the firmware tree should never require a forced update, that is). I'd really appreciate if the firmware tree had signed tags or signed commits, though. Those at least provide decent end-to-end security (both at rest, and while in transit) for data once it has been "git push"'d. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
