When I try this using 1.7.3.1 the tag signature header says "PGP
SIGNATURE" and not "PGP MESSAGE". I wonder if you just have some odd
gpg settings.

C:\src\git-gui>git version
git version 1.7.2.3.msysgit.0

C:\src\git-gui>git tag -s -a -m "test" test1

You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@googlemail.com>"
1024-bit RSA key, ID F084E489, created 1995-04-11


C:\src\git-gui>git cat-file tag test1
object 00e9de72c8f9b7c048bb56a59be9567d69dc1e01
type commit
