Unless the commits are performed automatically by a daemon or something, it does
*not* make sense to set Author to "Nixpkgs Monitor".  I use all sorts of tools
to help me make patches (say nix-generate-from-cpan), but I don't put that in
the Author field.

Right now I get all these commit emails from "Nixpkgs Monitor", and I have no
idea who did those commits.
