Description
I just cloned my Mac from the old one to the new one using Disk Target mode & disk restore,
and Keybase didn't sign me out of the app.
Most the other apps (chrome, viber) signed me out.
I would expect this kind of a program to sign out when there is a significant change in the machine's configuration.
Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.24-20170619144856+91a6943

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported Disk Target mode and disk-restore migration on macOS using the Keybase GUI version named in the report. Trace how the client identifies the device and handles sign-out; done means a cloned installation signs out when the machine configuration changes significantly.
