True.

I actually think it is a bad idea to add ":" after every mention of
"Signed-off-by"; it only looks clarifying because we use a boring
and generic word "line" to refer to where that three-word token
appears.

We can say "a 'Signed-off-by' trailer" and it becomes plenty clear
that we are not talking about any random line in the log message,
and we do not need ":" everywhere, I suspect.

Thanks.
