Re: GPG signing for git commit?

How about signing the tree SHA-1 and putting the signature in commit
message? It's like gpg way of saying Signed-off-by. If the committer
wants to sign again before pushing out, he could amend the commit,
append his signature there; or make a no-change commit to contain his
signature (probably from git-commit-tree because iirc git-commit won't
let you make no-change commit)

Hmm, I like the sound of that, but I'm concerned it might be difficult
to enforce. If rewrite-history ever happens, it's also invalidated.

Well if you rewrite and touch the trees, then every signature should
be invalidated anyway. If you only touch commit message, it should
remain valid because I only sign trees.
