Pretty sure that isn't right. :)

The preferred way to send a patch with a different author is to have
actual email be "From:" you, but then include a:

  From: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx>

as the first line of the body (which git-am will then pick up).
git-send-email will do this for you automatically. Other scripts (like
say, if you're sending the output of format-patch into mutt) used to
have to implement it themselves, but these days we have "format-patch
--from", which should directly output what you want.

The patch itself is flawless, of course. ;)
