Hi all, On September 11 I asked on general@ about the authorship of two XML Graphics Commons commits and got no reply. general@ has little traffic, so I am asking here, where the committers are active. The original message: https://lists.apache.org/thread/t6s96g77jsls8x6pos5yk6rvfbm6vqxp
In short: my pull requests #32 (XGC-148, drop the commons-io dependency) and #33 (skip dependency submission and SonarCloud for PR checks) landed in main as 22e04a9b0a and cd7b9760d9. Each commit matches its pull request line for line, but names a committer as the author. GitHub builds the contributors list and profile activity from the Author field, so these changes are not credited to me there. Could a committer revert 22e04a9b0a and cd7b9760d9 and merge both pull requests with the Squash button? A squash merge keeps the pull request author as the commit author. The commits cannot be amended, because .asf.yaml blocks force pushes to main. For future pull requests, merging with the button, or applying the change with “git am” or “git cherry-pick”, keeps the original author. The committer is still recorded as the committer. Thanks, Vladimir Sitnikov
