[CMake] Patches with "your name" all over them?

I'm attempting to get cmake build system into "upstream" which 
currently uses the autotools.

The upstream developers do not like "my name" all over the patch.

Looking into cmake files, I do see my name all over :-)

Here is a sample of the patches and "my name" issue:

--- conf/cmake_install.cmake    (revision 0)
+++ conf/cmake_install.cmake    (revision 0)
@@ -0,0 +1,34 @@
+# Install script for directory: /home/tanner/projects/showeq/svn.showeq/conf


--- src/CMakeCache.txt  (revision 0)
+++ src/CMakeCache.txt  (revision 0)

+# This is the CMakeCache file.

+//No 

help, variable specified on the command line.
+KDE_UIC_FILE:FILEPATH=/home/tanner/projects/showeq/svn.showeq/src/mapicondialog.ui

Am 

I adding the wrong files to upstream?

Are the things "#" (hashed) just comments and I can remove them from the file?

Should I just remove the src/CmakeCache.txt from revision control and 
it will be automatically generated when cmake is run?

Any documentation on what files (minimaly) need to be added to revision 
control so projects can build?

Thanks.
