'Why is git not finding my gpg signing key?
Environment
Windows 10 Using git bash terminal
System and Configuration Info gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.29-unknown libgcrypt 1.9.3-unknown
$git config --get gpg.program
C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\gpg.exe
$git config --get user.signingkey
E8E23B818
gpg --list-keys
/c/Users/my.name/.gnupg/pubring.kbx
pub rsa3072 2022-03-17 [SC] [expires: 2024-03-16]
**E8E23B818**EFEA493DD1F853065C7A9FE0D21AA0D
uid [ultimate] my name [email protected]
sub rsa3072 2022-03-17 [E] [expires: 2024-03-16]
It's weird that when other people use the gpg command they see much different output
gpg --list-keys
~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
pub 2048R/35F5FFB2 2016-04-23
uid name (New key) [email protected]
sub 2048R/112A8C2D 2016-04-23
Perhaps I am just setting the signingkey config parameter incorrectly so how can I get the output that others get like shown above?
*here is my attempt to sign and how it fails git tag -s v1.0 -m 'version 1 of this sandbox project' gpg: skipped "E8E23B818": No secret key gpg: signing failed: No secret key error: gpg failed to sign the data error: unable to sign the tag
