Description
It's good to see that mosh's release announcements are PGP-signed and include strong-enough hashsums of the source tar balls and macOS binary.
Unfortunately this doesn't allow to verify these files automatically. So please provide detached PGP signatures on the files as release artifact, too.
This would e.g. allow Debian to verify the signatures with their uscan upstream tar ball download tool, but also would allow anyone to use e.g. gpgv to verify the downloaded source-code without first having to copy and paste the release notes into a file, verify the PGP-signature, and then check the SHA256 hashsum and compare it manually with the one in the release notes.
TIA!

Research direction
Review how mosh release announcements publish source tar balls and the macOS binary, including the release artifacts referenced in the issue. Check the resulting files with gpgv and the Debian uscan workflow; done means detached PGP signatures are available alongside the source and binary artifacts.
