If such a preference exists, it directly names the identity used. Otherwise, the identity is located by searching all keychains for a certificate <span class="italic" style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;">whose subject common name (only) contains the identity string given</span>. If there are multiple matches, the operation fails and no signing is performed; however, an exact match is preferred over a partial match. These comparisons are case sensitive. Multiple instances of the exactly same certificate in multiple keychains are tolerated as harmless.</p><p style="margin-top: 5px; caret-color: rgb(77, 77, 77); color: rgb(77, 77, 77); font-family: Lato; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;">If identity consists of exactly forty hexadecimal digits, it is instead interpreted as the SHA-1 hash of the certificate part of the desired identity. In this case, the identity's subject name is not considered.</p></div></body></html>
