The 'From' magic line points to the actual commit the patch was generated from, so it would actually be @from^.
This of course would only work if the patches have the corresponding commits in the current tree (which is the case most of the time).
And makes sense only for the first patch, the rest of the patches would use a wrong commit as a base. See below.

How exactly? By looking at the commit from 'git blame' and discarding it? That would be a bit tricky since each instance of 'cccmd' is not aware of the previous ones.

Not currently. Once I add support for s-o-b it might be useful. Currently I left it in order to order the CC's by the count, but it turned out to be a bit messier than I thought, and the advantage is almost nothing.
I'll clean it up.
Taking in consideration the previous comments, here is v2:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
@authors = {}def parse_blame(line)
key, value = line.split(" ", 2)
case key
when "author"
@name = value
when "author-mail"
@mail = value
author = "\"#{@name}\" #{@mail}"
@authors[author] = true
end
endARGV.each do |filename|
patch_file = File.open(filename)
patch_file.each_line do |patch_line|
case patch_line
when /^---\s+(\S+)/
@source = $1[2..-1]
when /^@@\s-(\d+),(\d+)/
blame = `git blame -p -L #{$1},+#{$2} #{@source} | grep author`
blame.each_line { |l| parse_blame(l.chomp) }
end
end
end@authors.each_key do |a|
puts a
end
