"Patch by" was useful with Mercurial which didn't allow to store an
author and a committer. Git now stores the author and the committer:

vstinner@apu$ git show --pretty=full
5b48dc638b7405fd9bde4d854bf477dfeaaddf44 --stat
commit 5b48dc638b7405fd9bde4d854bf477dfeaaddf44
Author: Jonas Haag <jo...@lophus.org>
Commit: Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>

I'm not sure about added *manually* the author in the NEWS entry. I
would prefer to have a generated page like
https://thanks.rust-lang.org/ to limit the work of the reviewer (and
of the author).

My intent is not to hide the author of a contributor, but make
contributions as simple as possible in Python, and to better "scale"
our workflow.

What do you think?
