I think that, if credit should be given to the grant that funded a certain 
work, it should be stated in either a comment of the corresponding ticket, 
or the commit message. That way it would be clearly stated which code was 
funded by which grant.

Imagine the situation where the code funded by some grant is, in the 
future, replaced by some other code that has nothing to do with  that 
grant. In that case, there would be no code in sage that was funded by that 
grant.
