When someone edit any node and revision checkbox is not checked, then last revision author should not changed. But it always changed to current logged in user when node is saved. Our client want it to be keep same revision author if revision checkbox is not checked when updating node. It is for Client request.

    I would prefer to see the Drupal 7 behavior carried forward.

    Drupal 7 updates the revision author and timestamp to reflect the most recent edit.

    We had a few content types in Drupal 7 where we had revisions disabled because it wasn't needed. However, Drupal 7 would still track the last user who edited a node which was very useful. Now in Drupal 10 with revisions disabled this same behavior is not possible.

    We will need to turn on revisions as needed and probably use the node_revision_delete module to limit the revision total.
