The GNU coding standards has section saying not to do that. From : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When you install someone else’s changes, put the contributor’s name in the change log entry rather than in the text of the entry. In other words, write this: 2002-07-14 John Doe * sewing.c: Make it sew. rather than this: 2002-07-14 Usual Maintainer * sewing.c: Make it sew. Patch by jdoe@gnu.org. As for the date, that should be the date you applied the change. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks, Pedro Alves
