I see an option was mentioned in the mail's subject line, but no
indication which command you want to assume implicitly that this option
was passed.

Care to elaborate?

You probably meant $HOME/.bashrc.

Since you are already a Git user, why not just use Git itself to
investigate further? It is easy:

1. clone https://github.com/git/git
2. run `git grep show-signature` to figure out where this option is handled
3. open the corresponding file and find out where the flag is stored
4. use `git grep` again to determine whether there is another way to set
   that flag

If there is no other way, why not go the whole nine yards and just come up
with a patch? That is how many, many other improvements were made: users
wanted a certain feature and then just went ahead and made it all happen.

You will find it a rewarding experience, and you will also find that you
will receive excellent help on this mailing list when you demonstrate your
willingness to invest some of your own time into that project.

Ciao,
Johannes
