Hi *,

as it is possible to mutliple people to bzr push to a tree,
I think it would be very usefull, to seperate the author of a changeset and the committer,
as GIT does it, so if someone merge someoneelse's changes to a a tree, the committer should allways
be the person who actually move the change set to the target branch, and the author should be the
person who, wrote the code and does a bzr commit to his local branch. so if a changeset is moved
 visists more than one branch until it reaches the master branch, the author is still the same in
all branches, but the committer is (maybe different in each branch) and represents allways the
committer to the specific branch...

Comments?
