Allow the tag signing key to be specified in the config file
I did this: $ git tag -s test-sign gpg: skipped "Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>": secret key not available gpg: signing failed: secret key not available failed to sign the tag with GPG. The problem is that I have used the comment field in my key's UID definition. $ gpg --list-keys andy pub 1024D/4F712F6D 2003-08-14 uid Andy Parkins (Google) <andyparkins@gmail.com> So when git-tag looks for "Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>"; obviously it's not going to be found. There shouldn't be a requirement that I use the same form of my name in my git repository and my gpg key - I might want to be formal (Andrew) in my gpg key and informal (Andy) in the repository. Further I might have multiple keys in my keyring, and might want to use one that doesn't match up with the address I use in commit messages. This patch adds a configuration entry "user.signingkey" which, if present, will be passed to the "-u" switch for gpg, allowing the tag signing key to be overridden. If the entry is not present, the fallback is the original method, which means existing behaviour will continue untouched.
