Welcome!
Hi, I tried to commit to dev and it says that my gpg key is not found in the keyserver. However when I try to add it as shown in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Infrastructure/Generating_GLEP_63_based_OpenPGP_keys#Next_steps I get a permission denied error because I'm not a developer. How would I go about that? Also when I change something in an existing ebuild can I just commit to dev or do I need to open a pull request? If I need to do a pull request, how do I add the signed off by?
Please paste the exact error. GURU does not require contributors to have PGP key on our keyserver, just commits need to be signed by some key.
I signed my commit with a key I created according to the glep wiki entry. Enter passphrase for key '/home/linthalo/.ssh/id_ed25519': Enumerating objects: 13, done.

git push --signed
Ok, thanks I'll try. But what about the other question? Should I do a pull request or commit to dev? Didn't find anything in the wiki.
Use your best judgment. In general, you can commit straight to dev, unless you have a good reason to believe that the package in question is actively maintained by somebody else, and that said person may disagree with your changes.
