Description

Viewer's menu -> Help -> About -> Credits.
This tab lists contributors from a doc in the repo.

Previously when accepting a contribution we would just modify the commit to update that doc when accepting a contribution. But since transition to Github's pull requests modifying a contribution is no longer possible and practice appears to be ignored.

Task

Fill contributors based of CLA?
Fill that doc based off external PR when merging?
