The recently posted patch documenting is an improvement, but why not
add an option so you can do

  --format 'committer %c\nauthor %a\n'
  
this catches all combinations, and is easier for scripting.

Right now, I have some scripts that have to munge log output with
regular expressions to strip out the "author:"  prefixes.
