I certainly did, and certainly did not find any mention. Do you think I
would have asked otherwise? I'm trying to be helpful by testing out a
patch in flight. That is: *I* am trying to be helpful.

gave me the impression that commit signatures are done "similar to how
signed tag is done".

*After* doing several "cat-file" and after your insisting that you had
described the "sig " indent I come to the conclusion that you
implemented it this way "instead of... [doing it] similar to how signed
tag is done".

Before that, I misread those paragraphs (togetheter with the
non-existing object format doc) to mean that have a section in the
object which is ignored automatically, which is where tag signatures are
(while in fact they are not) and where commit signatures will go.

I have to say I dislike the fact that we would have different signature
formats. But I have spent too much time on this unnecessarily already.
