Hello *, I've been trying to (re)construct a .mailmap file[1] in ghc.git which allows `git shortlog` and `git log --use-mailmap` (and possibly other tools/commands) to fixup bogus author-ids when displaying the Git history, in the hopes to provide a more complete history of GHC and all contributors involved. I've been able to infer mappings for most users, but I'm stuck on a couple of older account usernames dating back a decade ago for which I have no idea what real names to associate with. These are specifically: $ git shortlog -es | grep unknown 16 apt <unknown> 1 cryder <unknown> 13 desrt <unknown> 8 dnt <unknown> 1 geoffw <unknown> 12 gla <unknown> 3 josefs <unknown> 5 krc <unknown> 1 kw <unknown> 5 kw217 <unknown> 1 mbs <unknown> 1 moran <unknown> 3 njn <unknown> 8 ralf <unknown> 11 rje <unknown> 1 sseefried <unknown> 1 tgedell <unknown> 1 uid245 <unknown> 1 umuta <unknown> 1 y.zhuang5@lse.ac.uk <unknown> If you happen to know who these past contributors are, please either tell me or update [1] accordingly. Moreover, if you stumble over any wrong entry in [1], feel free to correct it. Thanks, hvr [1] http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git/blob/HEAD:/.mailmap PS: If anyone's curious, the top-5 committers in ghc.git are currently: $ git shortlog -sn | head -n5 8513 Simon Marlow 5368 Simon Peyton Jones 4629 Ian Lynagh 2633 Sigbjorn Finne 941 Julian Seward
