Description Mateusz Piotrowski freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-02-07 14:25:56 UTC
When a commit has more than one author, we are encouraged to use "Co-authored-by" to indicate that, e.g.,

    Co-authored-by: Mateusz Piotrowski <0mp@FreeBSD.org>

This should get documented.

Bonus points for adding it to the Git commit templates in all the trees.

GitHub Reference: https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/committing-changes-to-your-project/creating-and-editing-commits/creating-a-commit-with-multiple-authors

This should indeed be documented in the Commit Log Messages section in the committer's guide
