SignWith
When this field is present, a Release.gpg file will be generated. If the 
value is "yes" or "default", the default key of gpg is used.

Reference: https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/reprepro/reprepro.1.en.html 

So I guess it would not be signed by all the keys instead just with the 
default key.
