But... why do you actually care? -- Thanks, Sasha

Everyone else sends patches the normal way, with accurate attribution. Why should stable be different? (I was surprised to see Greg contributing to nouveau when I first saw the patch. But then realized it was the stable ingestion notification.) -ilia

I'm just concerned about what exactly you are doing with the -rc patches to actually care about this :) -- Thanks, Sasha

Everyone else sends patches the normal way, with >accurate attribution. Why should stable be different?It shouldn't. It's just a mismatch between our two somewhat seperate workflow. Technically it's Greg who needs to be adding that line since the patches I have in stable-queue correctly state the author, and it only goes wrong when they're being formatted into mails sent for the -rc cycles. But yes, thanks for pointing it out, I'll go add it in the scripts. -- Thanks, Sasha
