Git signed pushes

Body

I realize that GitHub at this time does not support Git signed pushed (as has been mentioned and solved in this #23515, but due to the increase in security awareness of repositories (public and private), it would be nice to have the ability to push with assurance that the commits will not be replayed out of context (the purpose of signed pushes)

This is particularly useful since GitHub supports signed commits (which can have a false sense of security for repository owners if a successful replay attack is performed), but no signed pushes (which would eliminate the security hole if it is used by the pusher and a replay attack is attempted).

A good explanation of this can be found here (pulled on 11/19/2024 17:15 UTC): https://people.kernel.org/monsieuricon/signed-git-pushes
