Hard to guess what has happened. But it definitely looks like Forgejo
"merged" this PR twice and the 2nd time it applied empty commits.

It looks really amateur on this side of Forgejo. Not only the race
condition (probably) that executed merge twice, but also allowing
empty commits by default, which git normally warns about. Forgejo
should abort at this point... or never do it twice.

Quite surprising, because this is a very basic scenario and we are
already finding bugs. This is also why my initial intuition in the
GitLab vs Forgejo discussion was that GitLab is battle tested and in a
corporate environment, things like that would never happen in more
mature software. But that's a discussion for another mail thread, my
list of forgejo issues is getting longer and longer...

As far as I've seen Forgejo is only able to sign commits that it
produced, like when you create an initial community or edit something
in web ui.

I've tested a few days ago and neither rebases, nor merge commits were
signed by Forgejo and instead all signatures are stripped.

And this happens even though Forgejo explicitly says besides the
"merge" button, that commit will be signed by key <path>. Never seen
this work.

Yes, this is my bad, sorry.
