Looks like the main contributors to this were Andrew Garrett in July
2006 [1] and December 2006 [2], Aaron Schulz in March 2007 [3], and
Andrew again in July 2007 [4].

So appreciation for them, the other old hands that have been around
for such an incredibly long time, and all the other committers that
created the tens of thousands of commits in MediaWiki's history [5];
it's always interesting to dig through them when looking up old stuff
like this.

[5] For those of you wondering "shouldn't that be 'over 100k?': there
were about 114k revisions in SVN at the time of the git migration, but
those weren't all MW core. At the time of this writing, there were
about 43k commits in the mediawiki/core.git history (excluding merge
commits).
