[RFC PATCH 0/2] cryptoSign flag & config

[Fabian Stelzer <fs@gigacodes.de>]

Since git now supports multiple methods for signing objects some of the 
existing flags and configuration variables can be misleading. Especially the 
flags could be understood as selecting a format (--gpg-sign), which they do 
not.

This series introduces the more generic name "cryptoSign". Using just "sign" 
could otherwise be too easily confused with "sign-off".

For now I have only adjusted the gpg-sign flag to a single command and added 
the new configuration prefix and would like to hear some feedback. If we can 
agree on the naming and implementation I will of course adjust all the other 
commands likewise and add some tests for the compatibility layer.
The `(commit|tag|push).gpgsign` var is still on my todo list as well. 

My earlier question to the list (<xmqqzgpn50l6.fsf@gitster.g>) did not 
receive much feedback so i'm sending this rfc patch.

Fabian Stelzer (2):
  crypto sign: add crypto-sign alias flag
  crypto sign: add cryptoSign.* config
