We now sign commits that are created via squashing a merging a pull request: https://github.blog/changelog/2019-12-19-improved-attribution-when-squashing-commits/

GitHub will automatically use GPG to sign commits you make using the GitHub web interface, except for when you squash and merge a pull request that you are not the author of.

except for when you squash and merge a pull request that you are not the author of.
