You can set "--author" when making the new squash commit (we should
document that somewhere, since it's also useful when importing patches
from bugs.python.org).

Although looking at https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/169 (where
I set the author to Serhiy, since I was importing a patch he wrote),
it seems GitHub doesn't actually *show* the Author information
anywhere that I can find.

Cheers,
Nick.
