Did you actually read the commit description? It's quite clear who
originated the commit:
commit 0c1aa20fb87b796d904f4d89ad12e5a0c483127b
Author: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>
Date: Thu May 29 22:39:28 2008 +1000
[netdrvr] Fix 8390 build breakage
From: tony@...eyournoodle.com (Tony Breeds)
...
Signed-off-by: Tony Breeds <tony@...eyournoodle.com>
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@...hat.com>
It's pretty hard to miss, and it accurately captures the entire audit trail:
1) who sent the patch?
2) who wrote the patch?
3) who committed the patch?
So, you want to eliminate part of that audit trail (#1), making the
commit audit trail more hidden and opaque?
I respectfully disagree. We should capture the _entire_ audit trail,
not hide bits of it.
Full credit is given, as you can see from looking at the commit.
Jeff
