9 A tool to create/update the mailmap file
11 The command 'git shortlog' summarizes git log output in a format suitable
12 for inclusion in release announcements. Each commit will be grouped by
15 One problem is that the authors' name and/or email address is sometimes
16 spelled differently. The .mailmap feature can be used to coalesce together
17 commits by the same persion.
18 (See 'man git-shortlog' for furthur information of this feature.)
20 This tool helps to create/update the mailmap file.
22 It runs 'git shortlog' internally and searches differently spelled author
23 names which share the same email address. The author name with the most
24 commits is asuumed to be a canonical real name. If the number of commits
25 from the cananonical name is equal to or greater than 'MIN_COMMITS',
26 the entry for the cananical name will be output. ('MIN_COMMITS' is used
27 here because we do not want to create a fat mailmap by adding every author
28 with only a few commits.)
30 If there exists a mailmap file specified by the mailmap.file configuration
31 options or '.mailmap' at the toplevel of the repository, it is used as
32 a base file. (The mailmap.file configuration takes precedence over the
33 '.mailmap' file if both exist.)
35 The base file and the newly added entries are merged together and sorted
36 alphabetically (but the comment block is kept untouched), and then printed
44 prints the mailmapping to standard output.
46 scripts/mailmapper > tmp; mv tmp .mailmap
48 will be useful for updating '.mailmap' file.

56 # This limitation is used so as not to create a too big mailmap file.
