Subject: CREDITS: simplify the end-of-file alphabetical order comment
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 06:17:42 +0500
The existing comment references specific individuals by name which becomes
outdated as new entries are added. Simplify it to state the alphabetical
ordering rule clearly without depending on who happens to be the last
entry.
