I personally am not sympathetic to such a "sign every and all commits by
multiple people" workflow. If you really want to do such a thing, you can
have the second and subsequent one to create a new commit on top whose
sole purpose is to hold such a signature (commit --allow-empty --gpg-sig),
or use signed tags.
