This is all that I'm saying: Keep git exactly the way it is, but add
one extra piece of identifying information for each person.

The thing is, you don't seem to realize that most authorship is [sent
over email with incomplete information].

That is a really good point, and something I'll have to consider more
thoroughly.

However, I do NOT claim that my proposal will add information where
there is none, only that it will reduce the rate at which entropy
increases.
