Kenneth Knowles commented on BEAM-8647:
---------------------------------------
Also note that .mailmap is a part of git infrastructure. It is used by git if
present. So merely by existing, it is used.
> Remove .mailmap from the sources

> Hi,
>
> .mailmap manipulates individuals data which are considered "personal" (name,
> email etc)
> AFAIK Apache/Beam is not allowed to do it straight, in particular for EU
> citizens (_GDPR)._
> Can the file be removed since it is not used by the beam project (at least
> apache/beam repo)?
