In the .repo file:

[centos]    
name=centos7.2   
baseurl=http://10.0.0.1/centos7.2/7.2/xxx/x86_64/   
enabled=1   
gpgcheck=0

You can see there is some key-value analogy things, I know the name, baseurl and enable representative for what, but I don't know what is the use of gpgcheck, someone can help with that?

gpgcheck=value …where value is one of:

  • 0 - Disable GPG signature-checking on packages in all repositories, including local package installation.
  • 1 - Enable GPG signature-checking on all packages in all repositories, including local package installation. gpgcheck=1 is the default, and thus all packages' signatures are checked.

enabled=value …where value is one of:

  • 0 - Do not include this repository as a package source when performing updates and installs. This is an easy way of quickly turning repositories on and off, which is useful when you desire a single package from a repository that you do not want to enable for updates or installs.
  • 1 - Include this repository as a package source.
