That is fine as a last resort, but it is probably less disruptive to
find these things before you try to push i.e. as part of the "apply the
patch" otherwise you could end up having to rebase a whole lot of later
commits.

Anyway, here's my current version of my script.  It just takes a commit
range (anything you can pass to "git log").  You may want to drop the
gitk invocation at the end.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

if [ "$#" -lt 1 ]; then
	printf "Usage: %s <commit range>\n", "$0" 1>&2
	exit 1
fi

commits=$(git rev-list --no-merges "$@")
if [ -z "$commits" ]; then
	printf "No commits\n"
	exit 0
fi

author_missing=
committer_missing=

print_commits()
{
	local t="$1"

	shift

	s=
	is='is'
	its='its'
	[ "$#" -gt 1 ] && {
		s='s'
		is='are'
		its='their'
	}
	printf "Commit%s\n\n" "$s"
	git log --no-walk --pretty='format:  %h ("%s")' "$@"
	printf "\n%s missing a Signed-off-by from %s %s%s.\n" "$is" "$its" "$t" "$s"
	printf "\n"
}

for c in $commits; do
	ae=$(git log -1 --format='<%ae>%n<%aE>%n %an %n %aN ' "$c" | sort -u)
	ce=$(git log -1 --format='<%ce>%n<%cE>%n %cn %n %cN ' "$c" | sort -u)
	msg=$(git log -1 --format='%b' "$c")
	sob=$(echo "$msg" | sed -En 's/^\s*Signed-off-by:?\s*/ /ip')

	am=false
	cm=false
	grep -i -F -q "$ae" <<<"$sob" ||
		am=true
	grep -i -F -q "$ce" <<<"$sob" ||
		cm=true
	"$am" && author_missing+=" $c"
	"$cm" && committer_missing+=" $c"
done

if [ "$author_missing" ]; then
	print_commits "author" $author_missing
fi
if [ "$committer_missing" ]; then
	print_commits "committer" $committer_missing
fi

exec gitk "$@"
