Well, the fact that I'm asking, means it is not clear who did what. Please
document that like this:

Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[lucky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: struct foo moved from foo.c to foo.h]
Signed-off-by: Lucky K Maintainer <lucky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

(example is from Documentation/SubmittingPatches where the whole authorship
tracking is explained in detail.)

Alternatively, you can put it in free text in the commit message.

Thanks.
