Subject: git-tag -s can't find GPG private key

Hello,

It seems that when the GPG key name and user.name in git's config are
different, git can't find the appropriate private key to sign the tag.
Git should attempt to use user.email to find the key. Setting
user.signingkey is of course a workaround. The relevant code would be in
builtin-tag.c.
