You may move Cc list after '---', so it won't unnecessarily pollute the commit
message.
Emm... It appears that it's a common practice to include "Cc" in the
commit log.
Yes, just ignore this feedback, it goes against common practice. Cc list
as is looks sane to me.
It seems nobody can give technical arguments why it's better than just keeping
them outside of the commit message. Mantra "common practice" nowadays is
questionable.
Just look at how patches look like in the git tree that Andrew picks up.
(IIRC, he adds a bunch of CCs himself that are not even part of the
original patch).
Having in the git tree who was actually involved/CCed can be quite
valuable. More helpful than get_maintainers.pl sometimes.
