Note the commit will "authored" by the original poster, so perhaps
if you modify a patch we should add a "Modified-by: " line to indicate
that it was dual authored.

"We encourage the use of Co-Authored-By: name <n...@example.com> in
commit messages to indicate people who worked on a particular patch.
It's a convention for recognizing multiple authors, and our projects
would encourage the stats tools to observe it when collecting
statistics."

Well there you go, I missed that. "Always read the little writing at
the bottom" :)

That said, if the work I'm doing is trivial fixup to someone else's
change and I'm not substantially contributing to the overall
idea/implementation, I don't bother to add one... only if it's a
significant departure from/improvement on the original author's
work.

Sure.
