Sure, something like OLMo. Admittedly fewer users than the big guys but
it is free software and free training data. So please change the
proposed wording to:
* Reviewers may request that you add an “Assisted-by” line in your
commit message if parts of the contribution have been auto-generated.
For example, “Assisted-by: OLMo 3.1 32B Think and Autoconf 2.73”.
