gpg signing key
This is probably the wrong category for this question, so please feel free to move it to the correct place, however it relates to 1Password 8 beta (Mac). Is there a way for me to put my git signing key into 1Password to sign my commits with? I have all my ssh keys working and my GitHub account works, but signing still requires me to enter a key passphrase.

While GitHub doesn't show it, I'd still like to be able to configure this so that when Github does show it, my commits will all be signed. What steps do I need to take?
ssh -vT git@github.com
logs me into github just fine, but trying to sign a commit gives me this:
```

@fsargent Could you try removing
gpg.program
? - Former Member
```
git commit --allow-empty --message="Testing SSH signing" -v

Please adapt and uncomment the following lines:

I got it to work after doing this:
$ export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=~/Library/Group\ Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock

@fsargent Ah yes, that makes sense, because Git commit signing is not linked to a certain host. Thanks for sharing!
