gpg failed to sign the data fatal: failed to write commit object [Git 2.10.0]

Question

I followed few articles over the pretty attributes on Git 2.10 release note. Going through which upgraded the git to 2.10.0 and made changes to global .gitconfig

Answer 1

For me, brew had updated the gnupg or gpg so all I had to do to fix this is.

brew link --overwrite gnupg

That linked the gpg to the right place, as I can confirm via which gpg and everything worked after that.
