Can I just toss in one little note from the sidelines?  Various other
projects (Linux kernel at the top of the list) have adopted tags like
Reported-by and Reviewed-by for metadata like this.  (Authorship lives in
git itself, with additional authors sometimes ambiguously indicated with
additional Signed-off-by lines).  There are tools out there which make use
of those tags now.  It would seem that, in the absence of a reason to make
up your own tags, it might make sense to be consistent with other projects?

Thanks,

jon
