Heh. So I'm open to having branch wide flags, but I'm not convinced that
thats a good idea, I'd much rather just pull the signatures around
always. I think Johan has moved them to their own knit so it will be
low-roundtrips to pull unsigned branches.

They are supported, and can be checked manually but I have not hooked in
pyme yet - its an external dependency yada yada yada.

If someone else wants to do that that would be great.

As for retroactively signing, setup gnome-gpg or whatever agent, then :
find .bzr/revision-store -name 'jam@*' -exec 'bzr re-sign -r revid:\{\}'


should do it.
