"Patch by" was useful with Mercurial which didn't allow to store an
author and a committer. Git now stores the author and the committer:
vstinner@apu$ git show --pretty=full
5b48dc638b7405fd9bde4d854bf477dfeaaddf44 --stat
commit 5b48dc638b7405fd9bde4d854bf477dfeaaddf44
Author: Jonas Haag
+1.
Related question: Should the news entry include "Patch by <name>?". I noticed some entries have this, some don't. Is there a rule?
Thanks.
