I did see that the "author" field for git commits can have only one entry, unfortunately, and it turns out "Signed-off-by" and "Acked-by" have other meanings attached that have to do with the patch-journey-from-author-to-you chain. But I'd like these to be somehow marked as jointly authored, definitely. > I'll queue this material up in the to-be-sent-to-davem queue. Ok, thanks. Satyam
