signing key is, so any anomalies can be quickly detected.

+    Optionally, you can verify that git and tarball match, the only differences should be the absence of .git* files in the tarball and a VERSION file in the tarball containing the version.
+    The git tags should be signed with <a href="git-tag-key.asc">EDDSA key DD1EC9E8DE085C629B3E1846B18E8928B3948D64</a>
