Well, it works, but your key currently isn't signed by *anybody*, so
right now it is a bit pointless.

That said, if you get it signed by more people in the future, the
signature that stays around in the kernel will become more meaningful
than it is today.

Qnd even in the absence of that, any future pushes using the same key
will obviously show that the git tree is controlled by somebody who
has access to that same key. So a gpg signature has *some* meaning
even when there is no external sign of trust, but it really is not
nearly as meaningful as it could be.

I don't know where you are physically, but we've got a fairly
geographically wide set of keys these days, so I think it should be
possible to get that key signed by some relevant people.. Hmm?
