Enabling commit signing results in a stacktrace

[wolph]

It appears this is a known issue: https://github.com/NicoHood/gpgit/blob/4ee493d453c04ff5bbce130fa5102622f23fcf9f/gpgit.py#L374-L380

Perhaps the configparser.NoSectionError should be caught to create the section?

Possible (theoretical, non-tested) fix:

section = 'commit'
if not cfgwriter.has_section(section):
    cfgwriter.add_section(section)
    cfgwriter.set(section, "gpgsign", True)

Stacktrace:

Closing as I switched back to bash. I dont know if I will use the python version again, bash seems still simpler to code and easier to install.
