If you do `git show --format=full` on these commits, it shows who
actually committed them to the repo.
I don't know what happened here, but I can say that sometimes during
patch review, the patch files don't apply so I rewrite them by hand and
then commit them with `git commit --author="Somebody else"`. I've made
similar mistakes with this workflow...
