I am on roundcube 1.1.3 and was wondering how I can remove the "--" and "---" from my signatures when composing emails.
Also, why does it sometimes display 2 dashes and others 3 dashes, is there a reason for that?
An option to remove them is available in git-master and will be part of version 1.2 which is expected to be released soon.
I'm not sure why there are sometime 2 and soemtimes 3, I'd not noticed that.
Standard signature separator is "-- " and some clients truncate text after the separator on replies. So, to prevent unintentional text removal when you use top-posting different separator is used.
So, where do I find this option?
on the settings screen its in the "Composng messages" section, under "Signature options" called "Force standard separator in signatures" or "sig_separator" in the main config file.
I don't have this option:

have you upgraded your installation from 1.1.3 to git-master?
No, I dont think so.
How do I do that?
You can download git-master from the roundcube github repo. There is a file in the root called upgrading, that has instructions in for how to upgrade.
