How to configure git-interpret-trailers command so that it follow
current rules for DCO:
* Signed-off-by: is always at bottom; we can have
  signoff+signoff+ack+signoff
* Signed-off-by: can repeat itself with the same author;
  this denotes steps in coming up with current version of the patch.
* but we shouldn't repeat the same signoff one after another

So we want to allow this:

  Signed-off-by: A U Thor <author@xxxxxxxxxxx>
  Signed-off-by: Joe R. Hacker <joe@xxxxxxxxxx>
  Acked-by: D E Veloper <developer@xxxxxxxxxxx>
  Signed-off-by: C O Mitter <committer@xxxxxxxxxxx>

but prevent this

  Signed-off-by: C O Mitter <committer@xxxxxxxxxxx>
  Signed-off-by: C O Mitter <committer@xxxxxxxxxxx>
