I meant no offense. Just ran this command

git blame -p "$1" | awk '$1 ~ /author$/ { print substr($0,
length("author  "), length($0)) }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr

on the for-each-ref.c and saw that Junio had the first place by a
relatively large margin.

Similarly, the git-for-each-ref.txt (I used plain git blame on this
one) has mostly been composed by Junio. Surely, it's not my privilege
to decide on the list of authors, but I wonder why the original
authors haven't claimed their rightful place in the docs.
