Hi, Thanks for your input. There is a catch here, `gitextractor` collector `author_id` based on git repo itself, so it wouldn't know about this **github user id ** at all. And because `git` is a distributed system, one can folk repo multiple times to different platforms (like github to gitlab to bitbucket), say if we collect these folk repos from different platforms, it is hard to determine which **platform userid** should a commit belongs to. We are currently working on a People entity to try to solve this kind of problem. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
