Notably though, Linux's requirement (Assisted-by) is different from what Claude Code actually does (Co-Authored-By). I'm not sure, but it might be intentional (to make the signaling explicit).
- sestep 5mo agoFor sure, and in the PR description for the Nixpkgs AI policy, they explicitly mentioned this as a "brown M&M test" [1]. I read the blog post as being against including this information in commit messages at all, not just about tools adding it automatically.

- stryan 5mo agoMy projects also require Assisted-by attribution as that's what the Fedora AI policy requires and that was the first major org with a coherent AI policy that I found when choosing it. Not sure which came first, that or Claude hijacking Co-Authored-By. Personally, I prefer Assisted-By. Co-Authored-By implies a level of respect and self-direction I don't think LLM's deserve.
- Conan_Kudo 5mo agoClaude hijacking Co-authored-by was a big influence on Fedora saying "AI thingies can't claim authorship or co-authorship".
