------------
We need to provide `--trailer sign` since the command won’t output anything if you don’t give it an input and/or a `--trailer`. Furthermore, the example where `msg.txt` already contains an s-o-b is wrong: $ cat msg.txt | git interpret-trailers --trailer sign Signed-off-by: Alice <alice@example.com> Signed-off-by: Alice <alice@example.com> A file which only consists of one trailer line is not interpreted as the original example must have expected. So change the examples to use the typical “subject/message” file.
