I have found a strange error. It is OK when I commit using gpg with git under bash or zsh.

git commit -S -m "xxx"

However when I commit it under tmux, I got:

gpg: signing failed: Operation cancelled
gpg: signing failed: Operation cancelled
error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object

You need to ensure that your GPG_TTY variable is correct; add

GPG_TTY=$(tty)
export GPG_TTY

to your shell startup scripts, including for non-login shells (your login shells are probably OK, but not non-login shells, which is why this fails in tmux).
