Certainly, will do. The archives for this list are very interesting to read!

Yes, this is already implemented - you just need to pass "--verbosity debug" to
the script. Example based on commit 8648aeb5d7b7 ("power: supply: add Qualcomm
PMI8998 SMB2 Charger driver") converted to a patch:
$ ./scripts/add-maintainer.py --verbosity debug $u/upstream/patches/test2/0001-power-supply-add-Qualcomm-PMI8998-SMB2-Charger-drive.patch

INFO: Maintainers added to all patch files successfully
The first "GET:" output prints the output of `get_maintainer.pl` verbatim, and
the "ADD:" output shows what exactly is getting added to that patch. Hope this
is what you were expecting. Please let me know if you'd prefer any other
modifications to this debug output.

I see the issue. I will use a simple regex to search for the first occurrence
of a valid "From: <email address>" and stop there.

Thank you - fixed.

Since I'm using `set()` in this script, the uniqueness is guaranteed here as
well - there won't be any duplicates.

This looks really useful! I haven't explored git hooks enough to comment on
this though, sorry.
