With git shortlog I can replace usernames and email addresses using a .mailmap file in the root of the repository. All good.
Yet git log doesn't seem to honour such a .mailmap file. I don't fancy specifying a custom format but would at least like a flag to enable this behaviour optionally, assuming one isn't already present and I've just missed it. Is there a reason for its absence or would this be desirable behaviour? Would like to submit a patch but C's a bit beyond me for now, I couldn't even track through to where git log pulls out the author, let alone fix it. Thanks in advance. --
