I didn't write the content of that commit. Author and committer being different is for things like rebasing commits written by other people.

You mentioned a pull request, and that it got edited - which in my workflow is pulling the commit and amending it.

Okay, I probably misspoke about the technicalities. I opened a pull request, then they made a new commit and closed the PR (like it was an issue) and didn't touch the commit. Hope that makes sense now.
