             Summary: Allow committers to specify the primary author of the PR 
to be merged
                 Key: SPARK-9179
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9179
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build
    Affects Versions: 1.5.0
            Reporter: Cheng Lian
            Assignee: Cheng Lian
            Priority: Minor


It's a common case that some contributor contributes an initial version of a 
feature/bugfix, and later on some other people (mostly committers) fork and add 
more improvements. When merging these PRs, we probably want to specify the 
original author as the primary author. Currently we can only do this by running
{noformat}
git commit --amend --author="name <email>"
{noformat}
manually right before the merge script pushes to Apache Git repo. It would be 
nice if the script accepts user specified primary author information.
