setup-git-commit-signing.sh installation script fails

[ddobrinskiy]

Running on a macbook air m2, /usr/local/bin directory does not exist.

Creating it manually then puts me into all kinds of permissions hell

Yeah we should check the directory exists and that it is in PATH. Maybe check for ~/.local/bin first.

We're not sure about these scripts. I'm getting to thinking that the better way is via our GUI app later this year, where people can declare integrations between packages in some kind of markdown that show up once you have multiple packages installed.
