+1 for not requiring the contributor's name in the commit message and
having "The following people contributed to this release" in the release
notes.

Nowadays Github allows you to fetch that info very easily, I think it's a
leftover from the past where the task proved to be harder.

I lead towards allowing people to use github if they want to know who

I incline to "The following people contributed to this release"
For instance, I like the way Gradle release notes are written:
https://docs.gradle.org/7.2/release-notes.html
The trick is that the author name does not convey the URL, so either we
use
just names or we keep a contributor database.
