I semi-heartily recommend using an ECDSA key instead (ED25519), because
it will be much faster and we know they work fine for Linus since jejb
uses them to sign his tags. My understanding is that 4096-bit RSA keys
are pretty slow on Nitrokey Start devices.
If you want to stick to RSA instead of the new-fangled ECC (if you can
call a standard from 1980s new-fangled, that is), there is really no
benefit to having a signing subkey stronger than 2048 bits, especially
for the purposes of signing git objects -- which are only as strong as SHA1.
