enable setting annotated tag as default

[danmorgen]

Hi

When creating tag, the default option is lightweight tag.

Since there's no way in git to enforce annotated tags, I wish to change the default behavior in git extensions

Thanks

My gpg work automatically handles this.

#10473

In the meantime set tag.gpgSign to true and the user.signingKey default signing key.

GE is mostly sticking to Git defaults and the default for git-tag is lightweight tags.
There was a similar request in #9090 though.
Also #9672 tuned the defaults (not exactly the same though).
There are too many settings in GE already, I am OK with a PR to change the default to annotated.

Once I get my work in...it will reflect the config value of tag.gpgSign. If they have that set...it will automatically select sign with default key.

Part 2 of gpg work will be settings updates for git config to allow visibility of those settings.

Try out the functionality

Pull my branch and run after setting

• user.signingKey
• gpg.program
• tag.gpgSign
• commit.gpgSign

Play with gpgSign values to see how it reflects default functionality.

You can use gpg4win to manage keys and create gpg keys.

Try

• commit window options menu
• create tag
• merge window
• Rebase showing dialog

See how it works.

Left to do is testing and rework of the controller work to make ui controller really a controller and not just a helper.
