v2.18.0-rc0~70^2 (mailmap: update brian m. carlson's email address, 2018-05-08) changed the mailmap to map
[email protected] -> brian m. carlson <[email protected]> instead of [email protected] -> brian m. carlson <[email protected]> That means the mapping Brian M. Carlson <[email protected]> -> brian m. carlson <[email protected]> is redundant, so we can remove it. More importantly, it means that the identity "Brian M. Carlson <[email protected]>" used in some commits is not normalized any more. Add a mapping for it. Noticed while updating Debian's Git packaging, which uses "git shortlog --no-merges" to produce a list of changes in each version, grouped by author's (normalized) name.

Probably so. Sorry to leave this hanging for so long. How about this patch?
