Well, in that case you should rewrite the patches to have David in the
author field (e.g. rebase -i and commit --amend --author=...). Git
format-patch/send-email will insert an additional From header in the
patch e-mail then. (Sorry if that was clear to you already. I see you
have a different author in 2/6.)
