Patches generated with git-format-patch will retain original author when
applied. This is what we require in m2e for example, it makes much
easier to credit code contributions and generate stats reports.
Patches generated with git-diff (or plain diff, for that matter) do not
have author information. It is possible to tell git to attribute a
commit to somebody else, but I usually request to resubmit
git-format-patch formatted patch.

A question from a git rookie:
If we're applying a proper git patch, then the "submitted by" row shouldn't
be required in the commit message as git will handle this. Right?

In the future could we avoid those non necessary commit ?
I have started a git convention page here:

See the workflow section.
All fixes/improvements for this doc will be appreciate :-)
