So this isn't interesting to me.

Authorship is less relevant than submaintainership. So I'm more interested in *committer* information than authorship information.

Of course, since you do it in branches that you maintain, to you committer information is pointless. But I pull from submaintainers, and then it really is the committer part that is way more relevant.
