Commentary for Gittin 159:17
היה במזרח וכתב במערב: מאן אילימא בעל היינו שינה שמו ושמה שם עירו ושם עירה
'Ulla said: Why was it laid down that [the year of] the reign should be stated in a Get? For the sake of keeping on good terms with the Government. And for the sake of keeping on good terms with the Government is the woman to leave her husband and the child to be a mamzer.? — Yes. R. Meir in this is quite consistent, since R. Hamnuna said in the name of 'Ulla: R. Meir used to say, If any alteration is made in the form which the Sages fixed for bills of divorce, the child is a mamzer.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Cf. supra, 5b.
