I can't really use Barbato as the author, since I was the one who
included his changes, so I'm the author. But perhaps there is some way
to attribute him properly in spite of that?
Patches' authors are generally based on who originally wrote the patch, or at least wrote most of the patch; so in this case you would just put that Luca Barbato is the author (as they wrote it originally). If I were to submit a patch which someone else wrote with me as author it would be kind of like saying "I'm the original author of this patch" (which is obviously not true).
