Yeah, I personally do not want to see Git's documentation sound more autoritative than it actually is wrt how to use software from other people, especially given that we do not have volunteers who will closely be keeping track of their changes in order to update our documentation. So "any method that gpg supports" is a good place to stop from that point of view. "See documentation for the version of PGP software you use for details." is not a bad thing to add without risking to go stale, though.
