How to set up and validate locally

  1. Go to group level repository settings (e.g. http://127.0.0.1:3000/groups/flightjs/-/settings/repository) and make sure there is no General section
  2. Go to project level repository settings (e.g. [http://127.0.0.1:3000/groups/flightjs/-/settings/repository](http://127.0.0.1:3000/flightjs/Flight/-/settings/repository)) and make sure there is no General section
  3. Open http://gdk.test:3000/rails/features/ and turn on web_based_commit_signing_ui feature flag.
  4. Repeat points 1 & 2. This time the General section should be visible. The checkbox should react to a click, but nothing will happen.
