It is sometimes confusing however, see: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-02/msg01992.html We have: Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonz...@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20190123065618.3520-23-yang.zh...@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonz...@redhat.com> This is probably a special case, and eventually a Patchew limitation, but I first wondered who wrote this patch? Since the Message-Id is from Yang Zhong, is the Signed-off-by tag incorrect? Then I went thru the previous version and understood the author is indeed Paolo, but his patch was first sent by Yang Zhong, then he applied his own patch sent by Yang. And yet this isn't a pull request but a simple patch, so the Message-Id might not be very relevant there. > > Sadly, not all of our commits don't carry it.
