I've tried to stay out of the other thread involving this, but I feel
like I should speak up now.

Who approved this commit is quite clear. If I'm a single mentor or have
agreed to co-mentor someone is not relevant to the point that line is
trying to make. Some latitude with these kinds of trivial things is
better than a draconian approach to what is and is not allowed in commit
messages.

In all honesty, your insistence on not using 'co-mentor' is the first
I've ever heard of it. I realize that doesn't make it right, but I think
my point that this is a silly debate still stands.
