    I would highly recommend against "trusting" repositories. It's currently impossible to say if these packages do not include any nasty surprises and everything has been packaged correctly since these 'packages' have been created by the community.

    I would highly recommend against "trusting" repositories. It's currently impossible to say if these packages do not include any nasty surprises and everything has been packaged correctly since these 'packages' have been created by the community. While this is true, the packages can be examined quite readily. They're just zip files, and they contain text-readable scripting (typically powershell). So you can see that packages have been downloaded some 10's or 100's of thousands of times, you can be pretty sure it's safe.

    That's where verified signatures come into play.. if you trust the author of the package (they've been making packages for a long time) and their signature is valid, then again.. you probably have little to fear, short of bugs...

    I have 100% trust for Chocolatey repositories, they work together with Microsoft, Chocolatey repository will be included in final version of PowerShell OneGet. All software packages are tested for malware.
