The current idea is to use git notes to propagate that information from
Gitlab, to avoid having to rewrite MR commits. There's an experimental
refs/notes/commits branch on the main gitlab tree that you can pull if
you'd like to see what it looks like. If this works out we could
potentially use it for the original author signoff as well.
