As I recently had a chance to revisit an old thread back in v2.3.3
days, I recalled that I wished something like this was available,

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqd24g6uf1.fsf@gitster.dls.corp.google.com/

where I wished to have a way to count non-author contributions
easily to list them.

I am not comfortable with the idea of changing the release
announcement script immediately before the new release, so I'll do
v2.30.0 with the old "authorship only" script, but I'll play with
the new shortlog feature plus ideas from the old thread to see if we
can give more credit to non author contributors.
