Maybe simply adding this text to git-commit.txt,

The default can be changed by the 'commit.gpg-sign' configuration
variable (see linkgit:git-config[1]).

after,

-S[<keyid>]::
--gpg-sign[=<keyid>]::
GPG-sign commit.

would be sufficient?

Not sure what the proper way to test this,
could you please suggest any other unit test I could look at for inspiration?

Something like --no-gpg-sign?

Since the command line long option is "gpg-sign", I thought it was best
to use exactly the same term in the configuration variable name to
avoid confusion. Is there any problem with dashes in variable names?
