Signed commit

Hi all,

Some time ago, the Nextcloud released new version of their product.
I went to repository on the GitHub and looked closer at the counter of commits in the master branch.
This number interesed me and I looked at a few first commits. Next to general information about the commit, in the little circle button,
I saw green text: Verified, which inspired me to check what that mean.

After a fast research, I knew it is information about commit signed using GPG key.
I followed the manual attached below and my commits are now Verified, too.

In my opinion it is good practice to signed own commits,
because during contributioning to public repositories changes made by us will be more trusted.

It is everything that I have for today.
Everyone is a blacksmith of own fate.
Mateusz.
