I've wondered what exactly to link to.
Rather than pointing to a manual on how to add those tags in a github-specific way, I wanted to point to something that explains why co-author-by tags are useful and what value they bring. The github blog post I'm pointing to in the link is the best I've found (after searching for maybe 5 minutes).
So, I think the link to the github blog is slightly better than a link to the github-specific manual page. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a better page to point to - it's just that I haven't found it.
