I could, but I hope you will appreciate that I'm not terribly
interested in trying to fathom the mysteries of gpg in order
to deal with a single pull request that doesn't appear in

Yes, please. (You can sign the email as well if you like, but I'm
not going to be checking that, so it will be wasted effort :-)).
