Thanks Stephen, I keep saying every time you catch these that I need to run the same script. :( Florian, I wonder if this happened when you rebased to squash in the fix?Humm, could be, all I did (and it was not the first time) was to do an interactive rebase with --preserve-merges. AFAICT, all of these commits came from Eric's pull request, so what I typically do is just sign off on the merge commit, but do not apply my SoB to all commits coming from that pull request if that makes sense?
When you rebase, if the commit is re-applied, the committer changes to you, so you need to add your SoB to all commits you rebased. I suppose you could override it with GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variables, but that sort of distorts the SoB if any changes were added due to rebasing, such as resolution of merge conflicts.
