I never understood why bad habits are so stinky.
Can you please explain us what does it mean Co-developed-by and Signed-off-by of the same person in the same patch?
See Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst for what that tag means.
Read it, it doesn't help me to understand if I should now add Co-developed-by tag to most of RDMA Mellanox upstreamed patches, which already care my Signed-off-by, because I'm changing and fixing them many times.
It depends, it's your call, if you think you deserve the credit, sure, add it. If you are just doing basic "review" where you tell people what needs to be done better, that's probably not what you need to do here.
One example, where I just added myself to a patch happened last week where the developer submitted one solution, I took it and rewrote the whole implementation (from raw kobjects to using the driver model). The original author got the "From:" and I got a Co-developed-by line.
Does that help?
thanks,
