Subject: support commit --signoff
git commit -s, --signoff Add Signed-off-by line by the committer at the end of the commit log message. This is used in git.git for to say you agree to a few things in submitting patches. I believe the linux kernel requires 2 people to signoff before it can be included in mainline. I've made it a policy to signoff for my repos. however the auto tag and commit doesn't do it. so I have to ammend the commit.

i never used signoff with git. what happens when committer == patch author?

author? you end up with one sign-off line. really it just adds a peace of metadata to the commit log is all.
