It is a bit unexpected, but knowing how the command options evolved,
it is not all that surprising X-<. If you are using --format, you
are expected to use the %G placeholder and friends when you are
interested in signatures. The --show-signature option is unaware of
the other formatting options like --pretty={short,oneline,fuller, so
it is understandable (not "expected") what you are seeing.
