I think that a potential "git verify" doesn't need to block this series,
per the logic I gave elsewhere.
The one thing that does give me pause is that we do not seem to have any
way of accessing mergetag signatures. We should perhaps stop and think
for a second about how we might expose those (and whether it would fit
into the "git-verify-{commit,tag}" paradigm). I am tempted to say that
"git verify-tag" on a commit should verify the mergetag (right now it
would simply be an error). But I haven't though that hard on it.
I don't think implementation of that needs to be a blocker for this
series, but I'd rather see at least a vague plan so that we do not paint
ourselves into a corner.

I didn't see anything objectionable here. I think you may want to rebase
on top of jk/pretty-G-format-fixes. That makes your patch 4 redundant,
and your patch 5 will probably need a few minor updates to match
cleanups in the surrounding code.
