if a commit has multiple authors currently that's only

somehow specify multiple authors in git commits to
correctly generate the changelog.


In other projects, (multiple) authors are identified by (multiple)
Signed-Off-By: headers. Is there a GLIBC policy about these? The git
log shows some commits have them, others don't.

In any case, that would help with future commits, not current and past
ones.
This script is for future commits anyway so that should be fine. We did have broad agreement on using Signed-Off-By, Reviewed-By and Tested-by previously, so we will need to encode that in the wiki and make it mandatory once we have agreement on this script.
