For example, if you have multiple email addresses + and would like to use a different one for each repository, then + with this configuration option set to `true` in the global config + along with a name, Git will prompt you to set up an email before + making new commits in a newly cloned repository. + Defaults to `false`. + +user.signingKey:: + If linkgit:git-tag[1] or linkgit:git-commit[1] is not selecting the + key you want it to automatically when creating a signed tag or + commit, you can override the default selection with this variable. + This option is passed unchanged to gpg's --local-user parameter, + so you may specify a key using any method that gpg supports. |
