> One place to look (and possibly to contribute a suggestion to) is https://www.conventionalcommits.org/.  Another, older standard is at http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/conventions.html#crediting, though I think it's only used in that one project.  The latter one looks like it's more directly relevant to this use case than Conventional Commits is, as it currently supports these fields:
>

>    Suggested by:

>    Review by:

Emacs ChangeLog-related modes recognize the attributions via the
following regexp:

 "\\(^\\( +\\|\t\\)\\|  \\)\\(Thanks to\\|Patch\\(es\\)? by\\|Report\\(ed by\\| from\\)\\|Suggest\\(ed by\\|ion from\\)\\)

> "Co-authored-by:" is probably similar to "Patch by:".  Now, I think it still makes sense for us to use "Co-authored-by:", given that some (admittedly non-free-software) tools already parse it [1], but I wanted to make sure that these parallel efforts are known, so that we can learn whatever is available to be learned from them as we're setting a convention.

I think this should be part of the GNU Coding Standards (GCS), and
thus I suggest to discuss it on the bug-standards mailing list, not
here.  IMO, it isn't right for a single project to adopt such
standards, this should be in GNU-common conventions and guidelines.
