And in Git, if you merge someone else's code, you're the "author" too.

Yes, their name and email address (which could be fake) show up in the
history -- but ultimately the developer making the merge is taking
responsibility for the code.

This isn't any different than with SVN, where a developer commits a
patch and credits a name and email address, both of which may be
fakes/temporary.

From a policy/accountability perspective I don't see how this is really
different from SVN.
