[PATCH 1/3] fast-export: add --signed-tags=warn-strip mode

From
John Keeping <john@keeping.me.uk>
Date
Apr 14, 2013, 10:57 UTC
Message-ID
<8716b887972b0eb1671afd2692416efd588f7d1d.1365936811.git.john@keeping.me.uk>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1365936811.git.john@keeping.me.uk>

This issues a warning while stripping signatures from signed tags, which allows us to use it as default behaviour for remote helpers which cannot specify how to handle signed tags.
