Not sure where to ask this - here?  On the GH page documenting the 
transition and new workflow proposal, I don't see a way to have multiple 
AUTHORs in the way we usually kept track of it.  Note that often there were 
people who were authors who didn't show up on a specific commit, but which 
the discussion on a ticket made clear there was a consensus they should be. 
 (For instance, one might propose some code on sage-devel or sage-support, 
which then someone else puts on a branch.)  Do we have a proposal for a 
mechanism to keep track of this beyond PR-associated emails?  I realize 
that it's possible to put a different author than committer, but I'm not 
sure how that would work with multiple of both.  

If not, hat would not be an insurmountable difference for contributors, but 
would be a change from our historic practice which assigned credit 
"liberally", as it were.  For context, I thought of this as a potential 
contributor was asking about credit issues (not this precise issue, more 
generally) on a ticket.
