This is a Perl rewrite of Felipe Contreras' git-related v9 patch series[1] which was written in Ruby. Although that series was ejected from 'pu'[2], Junio suggested[3,4] that such functionality may be a useful addition to the official tool-chest, hence this Perl rewrite.
In this submission, the command name has changed to git-contacts since git-related felt too generic. (git-contacts seemed best of several possibilities I surveyed: git-people, git-interested, git-mentioned, git-blame-us.) This rewrite does not maintain perfect 1-to-1 parity with Felipe's v9 series, however, it is close: minor refactoring was done to eliminate a small amount of duplicate code; patch files and revision arguments are allowed in the same invocation rather than being exclusive; "git cat-file --batch" pipe deadlock is avoided; commit messages are expanded. No attempt is made to answer Junio's v9 review[5], as I lack sufficient insight with '-C' options to be able to respond properly. My Perl may be rusty and idiomatic usage may be absent.
