git config --global alias.logs "log --show-signature"
git config --global alias.cis "commit -S"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "Cédric Walter"
git config --global gpg.program "C:/Program Files (x86)/GnuPG/bin/gpg.exe"

Linux

add to your .bashrc

export GPGKEY=DF52ADDAC81A08A6

Using
