Core commit credit and log messages are inconsistent between patches and merges

There has been no discussion here for 9 years. Is this particular issue about git usage still relevant?

I am setting the status to Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If there isn't confirmation that this is still relevant, it may be closed after three months.

Thanks!

We 'fixed' this by never merging anything into core, and only committing downloaded patches.

There is probably a new issue about merging gitlab MRs into core with squash commits and a templated commit message somewhere.

@catch, thanks.

Based on that comment I am closing this issue. I searched for another issue about merging GitLab MRs but didn't find one so can't add that here.
