Provenance

Origin: EternalJK

Ultimate-origin introduction: dc3c8171d100 in EternalJK (content authored 2018-10-15, integrated 2018-10-15)
Upstream registration evidence: codemp/server/sv_init.cpp:1026
Attribution method: squash-feature-group-explicit-credit
Attribution confidence: medium
Notes: eternaljk retains origin because content authorship and PR submission predate the project that merged the work first. The identifier’s single-prefix squash feature group explicitly credits eternaljk.

Dated project introductions

Authored dates come from the exact registration’s first content commit, PR dates identify when work was proposed to each project, and integration dates come from each first-parent mainline. A project merging first does not override earlier upstream authorship or submission.

Later changes

These commits occur after the ultimate-origin introduction on TaystJK’s inherited first-parent lineage. Registration evidence is exact; behavior evidence requires a changed bound cvar reference or a changed registered command-handler hunk.
