Nobody raised this so far as far as I recall; thanks for the first one to do so, as it is a sign that you are doing something unusual (e.g. have newer or different version of GPG than most other people) and others will hit by the same symptom later when whatever thing you are using as a minority right now becomes more prevalent.
Indeed I am. I use Qubes OS with a split GPG setup. I have a virtual machine dedicated to handling my crypto keys and I use the qubes GPG wrapper to interact with the signing VM through the Xen hypervisor. I think the only thing that needs to change is that the tests respect gpg.program setting in .gitconfig. Signing and verifying commits and tags works perfectly but the tests don't allow me to override which program is used.
It may be a little more complicated than this because looking at the tests it seems like they set up their own dummy user with dummy keys and use gpg directly. I have gpg installed on my client VM so in theory it should work. I can't tell exctly where the prompt is coming from.
