Generally we try to keep emails out of commit messages since
they're quite ephemeral, and not subject to .mailmap etc.
So I'm fine with committing this, but possibly better would
be to update gitlog-to-changelog to query git for the address?
Perhaps something like this would work (which also honors
the .mailmap):
git_email() {
GIT_PAGER= git log -1 --author="$1" --pretty='format:%aE'
}
echo $(git_email "Niels Möller")
thanks,
