Hi,

what do you think about signing Release files with debsign? Especially
ones located on remote machines, so the existing debsign -r
infrastructure may be reused.
I also second the request for allowing more than one to-be-signed target
on the command line (#457355) as a repository may have multiple Release
files.

Just ran into this myself.  I'd like to set up a repository on a remote
server, but sign it with my own local GPG key.  "debsign -r" seems
perfect, if it would handle arbitrary files like Release.

Following up on this: debsign -r for Release files would still be quite
useful.
