Vanessa Otto requested to merge vanessaotto-main-patch-9edd into main

Why is this change being made?

I went through the document during my Onboarding Process. There are similar instructions in the Onboarding Issue. The Onboarding issue contained more information. Specifically how to digitally sign on macOS and Linux without using an online tool. I liked this information and wanted to bring it on the Handbook page as well. The Onboarding issue also links to this page, so I first started to follow the instructions on the Handbook page, and then afterwards saw the tips back on the Onboarding Issue.
