You might also want to add something with:

future_rev = local_branch.repository.get_revision(new_revid)
committer = future_rev.committer
authors = future_rev.get_apparent_authors()

# Inspect copyright lines to make sure there is one with the current
# year and the current committer/authors

'authors' is one or more authors, meant to indicate who actually wrote
the code. (In the case that someone sent you a patch that you are
committing for them.)
