Yes, that still works as expected, at least in the simple case.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly. If you rebase some signed commits,
the commits whose history changes will lose their signatures, because
they are no longer the same commits. But, I noticed this with previous
versions of Git also.

Because we never rewrite history once it's been on Savannah's master
branch, the only commits that need to be re-signed after rebase are my
own commits, so far seen only on my local repo. I've never needed to
rebase others' commits, so their signatures are unaffected.

Does that make sense?
