"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?
