FWIW, in emacs I have some macros that make it quick to type the long
statements, since it is so commonly needed in QEMU

  (define-abbrev-table 'global-abbrev-table
  '(
    ("8rev" "Reviewed-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>" nil 1)
    ("8ack" "Acked-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>" nil 1)
    ("8test" "Tested-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>" nil 1)
   ))

With that defined, if I type the word '8rev' and hit enter/spacebar then
it gets auto-expanded - so just as quick as typing 'ACK'.

For sob it is easy you can automate with a non-interactive rebase

  $ git rebase -i master -x "git commit --amend --no-edit -s"

For adding R-b/ACK/etc you could set EDITOR=/some/script which appends
them and to the same trick.
