With the initremote parameters "encryption=pubkey keyid=788A3F4C".
/!\ Adding or removing a key has NO effect on files that have already
been copied to the remote. Hence using keyid+= and keyid-= with such
remotes should be used with care, and make little sense unless the point
is to replace a (sub-)key by another. /!\
Also, a test case has been added to ensure that the cipher and file
contents are encrypted as specified by the chosen encryption scheme.
/!\ It is to be noted that revoking a key does NOT necessarily prevent
the owner of its private part from accessing data on the remote /!\
The only sound use of `keyid-=` is probably to replace a (sub-)key by
another, where the private part of both is owned by the same
person/entity:
git annex enableremote myremote keyid-=2512E3C7 keyid+=788A3F4C

* Other change introduced by this patch:
New keys now need to be added with option `keyid+=`, and the scheme
specified (upon initremote only) with `encryption=`. The motivation for
this change is to open for new schemes, e.g., strict asymmetric
encryption.
git annex initremote myremote encryption=hybrid keyid=2512E3C7
git annex enableremote myremote keyid+=788A3F4C
This option avoids gpg key distribution, at the expense of flexability, and
with the requirement that all clones of the git repository be equally
trusted.
