This is Github's documentation for doing it, but it's pretty annoying:

https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/committing-changes-to-your-project/creating-and-editing-commits/creating-a-commit-with-multiple-authors

Maybe we could create some automation to add these kinds of comments to the
merge commit created when a PR is merged, or as a comment on the PR when
it's closed....
