[WINDOWS] How to enable auto-signing Git commits with GnuPG for programs that don't support it natively

This is a step-by-step guide on how to enable auto-signing Git commits with GPG for every applications that don't support it natively (eg. GitHub Desktop, Eclipse, Git Tower, ...)

Requirements

Install GPG4Win: this software is a bundle with latest version of GnuPG v2, Kleopatra v3 certificate manager, GNU Privacy Assistant (GPA) v0.9 which is a GUI that uses GTK+, GpgOL and GpgEX that are respectively an extension for MS Outlook and an extension for Windows Explorer shell
Install Git for Windows: so you can have a *nix based shell, this software is a bundle with latest version of Git which use MINGW environment, a Git bash shell, a Git GUI and an extension for Windows Explorer shell (Make sure your local version of Git is at least 2.0, otherwise Git don't have support for automatically sign your commits)
Verify

If anyone is interested in setting up their system to automatically (or manually) sign their git commits with their GPG key, here are the steps:

Generate and add your key to GitHub
$ git config --global commit.gpgsign true ([OPTIONAL] every commit will now be signed)
$ git config --global user.signingkey ABCDEF01 (where ABCDEF01 is the fingerprint of the key to use)
$ git config --global alias.logs "log --show-signature" (now available as $ git logs)
$ git config --global alias.cis "commit -S" (optional if global signing is false)
$ echo "Some content" >> example.txt
$ git add example.txt
$ git cis -m "This commit is signed by a GPG key." (regular commit will work if global signing is enabled)

	# How to use:
	# - Place this file into %USERPROFILE%\Documents\WindowsPowershell (or location of choice)
	# - Import into your profile.ps1:
	# e.g. ". (Resolve-Path ~/Documents/WindowsPowershell/ssh-agent-utils.ps1)" [without quotes]
	# - Enjoy

	# Note: ensure you have ssh and ssh-agent available on your path, from Git's Unix tools or Cygwin.
