"That means it removes authorship information. If we tag a squashed commit
as coming from multiple authors, we still wouldn't be able to differentiate
what code was contributed by the individual authors."
We won't be able capture this in JIRA in either. I am not sure how much of
this is important to have all the commits from each contributor for a single
JIRA which in itself is rare unless its a big patch. It does have ability to
give each contributor credit in the commit log.
"So if I merged a pull request with multiple authors, the result would be a
single commit from me with a message listing the contributing authors, is that
correct?"
Yes. If its important we could squash commits into single commit per
contributor.
