Ok, so let us bikeshed a bit further.

Bikeshed 1.
Option A: --signed/--no-signed--signed-if-possible
Option B: --signed=true|false|if-possible, "--signed" alone implies "=true".

Bikeshed 2.

Option A: if-possible

The possibly confusing thing is one might interpret missing "gpg" to
mean "impossible", i.e. "if gpg is not installed don't attempt to
sign", which is not the behavior we want.

I don't have another succinct way of saying this.
"if-server-supported" is a mouthful. I think Jonathan mentioned
"opportunistic", which is fairly opaque.

I would call what we agreed is a good behaviour during this
discussion "--sign-if-asked".
