Yes, it applies to those.  Remember that we export them as ChangeLog files.

So just to confirm, only the commit message was LLM-authored, nothing else?

Eli, what do you think we should do?  Should we ask the Savannah admins
to help us forcefully undo this commit, or is it enough just to replace
the entry in the ChangeLog file exported after cutting the emacs-32
release branch?

I think the commit message saying co-authored by Claude even though the
code in the commit was not co-authored by the LLM is a problem because
we have no way of telling people that, in fact, this commit is not
LLM-authored.  So I worry that people will keep finding it and then
coming to the list to ask about it.  So I think that we should consider
asking the Savannah admins for help.
