Hello!

In sources.list(5) there is the possibility to have the Signed-by option, and 
the default is pulled from the acquired Release file:

    ยท Signed-By (signed-by) is either an absolute path to a keyring file (has to
      be accessible and readable for the _apt user, so ensure everyone has
      read-permissions on the file) or one or more fingerprints of keys either
      in the trusted.gpg keyring or in the keyrings in the trusted.gpg.d/
      directory (see apt-key fingerprint). If the option is set, only the key(s)
      in this keyring or only the keys with these fingerprints are used for the
      apt-secure(8) verification of this repository. Defaults to the value of
      the option with the same name if set in the previously acquired Release
      file. Otherwise all keys in the trusted keyrings are considered valid
      signers for this repository.

I do not see a valid way to include this option in a Release file generated by
reprepro, but it would be great if it could be added. Simply making the default
be the key that was used for SignWith would seem to make sense.
