Review comment:
       When is `GPG_KEY` not set? The script builds up the `@apache.org` email address, so it should always be available. Shouldn't that be an error case?

Review comment:
       Again, to my previous comments, I'm surprised this script identifies GPG identity via an email address/`--local-user`. I expected that we'd manage everything via a key fingerprint/`--default-key`.
