I was trying to generate a patch to send to a project (Linux specifically) but
when I generate the patch using "format-patch" I saw there was no "Signed-Off"
line, but my commit is signed using SSH. My git version is the latest, 2.34.

A "Sign-off" is a convention for the commit message, but _signing a
commit_ is a cryptographic signature. They are two different things.

You can add the "Signed-off-by:" trailers via `git format-patch`'s
`--signoff` option:
