Just talking about attribution. So if it's fine with you, I can
mention you in the commit message somehow.

Out of curiosity (apologies for meddling in), would this be the kind of
situation where sticking a "Co-authored-by" makes sense?
(cf. CONTRIBUTE)

It really would. If the commit was not already pushed, I'd have used your advice, thank you.

Terse and robotic as it may sound, I guess the convention allows anyone
(or any tool) interested in attribution to find it somewhat
deterministically…

(This prompted me to check whether any tool out there actually
recognizes this tag; apparently GitHub's log UI does[1].)

Cool. I didn't know that.
