Thanks for the hint!

$ GIT_TRACE=1 git commit --allow-empty -v -m "lol" 11:37:24.594795 git.c:369 trace: built-in: git 'commit' '--allow-empty' '-v' '-m' 'lol' 11:37:24.605842 run-command.c:369 trace: run_command: 'gpg' '--status-fd=2' '-bsau' '8AEC0DB537A9FC7E' error: gpg failed to sign the data fatal: failed to write commit object

It seems more a gpg problem no? something not well configured after the update perhaps?
