Because this wouldn't solve the problem or do you use signed commits in
your linux-audit git repository?


As long as you use a secure protocol and trust his repo signing the tags
doesn't give you all that much.

And even if you use signed commits I
really would appreciate if you would sign the tarball and provide a hash
for it on the release page. This would increase security a lot.


Yes agreed there, at least HTTPS connections are available.


cheers,
