Let's say project A has a workflow where patch authors and maintainers
add a "Signed-off-by: A B <a...@example.com>" line. This is well-supported
by git, various commands have a -s option to add that line.

However, if project B has a workflow where patch authors add no such
line, and reviewers add a "Reviewed-by: A B <a...@example.com>" line, then
you have to add that line manually when you do a review.

I suggest to give a bit more support to this workflow in git. One way of
doing that would be to make the Signed-off-by string configurable. I can
look into implementing that, but first I wanted to discuss the idea here
on the list -- perhaps there is a better way to support that. :-)

Typing that line (including copy&pasting your name + email all the time)
is a bit boring.

Regards,

Miklos
