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. - -Mike -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAktgqewACgkQst0AR/DaKHuDZgCgpYHD05aJHKF/Wj/uU8CK5swP SccAoMjHVKM/OZBhbvSvC+aWCQ123Tje =ZIo0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
