Thank you for working on this!



================
Comment at: llvm/docs/DeveloperPolicy.rst:295
 
-* Separate the commit message into title, body and, if you're not the original
-  author, a "Patch by" attribution line (see below).
+* Separate the commit message into title, body.
+
----------------
title, body -> a title and a body.


================
Comment at: llvm/docs/DeveloperPolicy.rst:299
+  set to the original author and the 'Committer' property is set to yourself.
+  You can use ``git commit --amend --author="name/nickname <email>`` to
+  correct the author property if it is incorrect. See `Attribution of Changes`_
----------------
It would be helpful if we documented somewhere that the patch author should provide this information as part of their review when deciding who will commit the patch.
