sign tags
currently signing does not apply to tags.
If you have a GPG private key set up, you can now use it to sign new tags. All you have to do is use -s instead of -a:
$ git tag -s v1.5 -m 'my signed 1.5 tag'
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Ben Straub <[email protected]>"
2048-bit RSA key, ID 800430EB, created 2014-05-04
see https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Signing-Your-Work
It looks like signing just appends a signature to the annotated tag. we just need to figure out what exactly is expected to be in the buffer that we need to sign.
