Public bug reported:

After running ‘add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa’ on Ubuntu 24.04,
‘apt update’ gives this warning:

W: https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/git-
core/ppa/ubuntu/dists/noble/InRelease: Signature by key
E1DD270288B4E6030699E45FA1715D88E1DF1F24 uses weak algorithm (rsa1024)

But this PPA is dual-signed by two keys, only one of which is weak.
add-apt-repository has chosen to install the rsa1024 key in
sources.list.d.  It should choose the rsa4096 key instead.
