I believe that is just a GitHub feature. Trailers are not some special field in the commit, just things at the end of the commit message. Sort of like an email signature. (Not a great example, I know.) My point is that the use of trailers will vary from project to project.
Good point!
It looks like GitLab doesn't have Co-Author support yet, yet.
At least - as part of the git history - co-author notes in commits can survive a migration away from GitHub.
It's not clear if the current GitHub implementation will be the long term accepted standard, of course.
