The standard way to credit this original author is: - if the patch is unchanged just keep her as the From: and Signed-off-by. - if you add small changes add your Signed-off-by to hers, and a note like [bob: fix foobarbaz] before it. - if you substantially rewrite a patch add it as From and Signed-off-by you, but add a note to the patch text that mentions the original work it is based on. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
