Yes. We have to more carefully generate patches:
git commit -s --author "Real Author <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
in case committer != author. You can also add "From: " to commit
message. Unfortunately I've forgot to use the --author option for
some manually (by patch(1)) applied patches...
A good manner is to add original author and all contributors to CC:
when you send the patch to upstream maintainer.
I'll be more pedantic next time.
