Hi Heinrich,

We don't keep the 'Cc: ' lines in commit lines when pushing to repo,
it is mainly added to be sure author of the original change is cc'ed 
since 'git send-email' picks emails from commit log.
So although it doesn't hurt, it is also not needed to have full name & 
email since it will be stripped explicitly.

Thanks,
ferruh
