Copy-paste from Johannes Schindelin.
Sorry, I do not understand. Are you saying:
(1) This duplicated code was introduced by copy-and-paste by Dscho and I
am cleaning up his mess?
or
(2) This change came from Dscho and I am just sending it by copy-pasting
what he did?
If the latter, then this is not a good way to describe what happened. You
would use in-body From: header to give attribution, and more importantly,
you need to say what you would usually say in the commit log message (what
it does, why the original is bad, etc.)
