So next time I will take your patch, your code, say "I recreated it" and
submit under my authorship and for you it is fine?

Please take Joseph's patch instead. Read submitting patches doc to
understand which one more tag has to be added when sending somoene
else's work.

In the future, I sincerely suggest avoiding re-creating people's work
but building on top, because you just duplicate the effort.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
