When I sent my first patch, I asked the person who helped commit that to
look up my name in the list of people who have assigned their copyright.

The patches should be sent as bug reports. That way, the patch and the
reasoning behind it stays together in a clean bug thread. Also the commit
to master can then refer to that (Bug#NNNNN). So, no guesswork is involved
if someone wants to understand why a particular commit was made.

Do you want to take this discussion to a bug thread? Simply email the exact
same thing to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org.
