FWIW, git can trivially auto-fill an AUTHORS file at make dist time.
Libvirt does it as follows:

Rename AUTHORS to AUTHORS.in, replace the names beneath the
"Patches also contributed by" line, with "#authorslist#" then
add to Makefile.am

dist-hook: gen-AUTHORS

.PHONY: gen-AUTHORS
gen-AUTHORS:
        $(AM_V_GEN)if test -d $(srcdir)/.git; then \
            out="`cd $(srcdir) && git log --pretty=format:'%aN <%aE>' | sort -u`" && \
            perl -p -e "s/#authorslist#// and print '$$out'" \
              < $(srcdir)/AUTHORS.in > $(distdir)/AUTHORS-tmp && \
            mv -f $(distdir)/AUTHORS-tmp $(distdir)/AUTHORS ; \
        fi

Regards,
Daniel
