Make the parsing of the --sort parameter more readable by having
skip_prefix keep our pointer up to date.

I suspect Junio may just apply this on the version of the commit he has
upstream, so you may not need this as part of your series.

You read me correctly ;-)  That is what I was planning to do, to
fork jk/tag-sort topic on top of the updated jk/skip-prefix topic.

However, for reference, the right way to handle authorship is with a

  From: Jeff King [off-list ref]

at the top of your message body. Git-am will pick that up and turn it
into the author field of the commit.

Thanks.
