This table is rather confusing to me. What's unclear to me is what "msg?" and "action" are referring to. After reading your patch, I think it may be clearer to say:

    The --signed-tags option takes one of five arguments specifying how
    to handle singed tags during export. Among these arguments, strip is
    to warn-strip as verbatim is to warn. (The unmentioned argument is
    'abort', which stops the fast-export process entirely). That is,
    signatures are either stripped or copied verbatim while exporting,
    with or without a warning.
    Make clear that the "warn" option instructs fast-export to copy
    signatures verbatim by matching the pattern (and calling the option
    "warn-verbatim").
    To maintain backwards compatibility, "warn" is still recognized as
    an undocumented alias.

Thanks, Taylor
