Hello Florian. There is at least an oddity with get_maintainer handling of a .mailmap entry form.
For instance: Mauro's .mailmap entry is: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mauroche...@gmail.com> <mche...@infradead.org> <mche...@redhat.com> <m.che...@samsung.com> <mche...@osg.samsung.com> <mche...@s-opensource.com> Is this a valid form? get_maintainer output for Mauro is: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl drivers/media/ -f Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mauroche...@gmail.com> <mche...@infradead.org> <mche...@redhat.com> <m.che...@samsung.com> <mche...@osg.samsung.com> (maintainer:MEDIA INPUT INFRASTRUCTURE (V4L/DVB)) I believe the Mauro's and Shuah's .mailmap entries are improper and should be changed, but I'm not completely aware of git .mailmap handling and the documentation seems weakly specified. https://git-scm.com/docs/git-check-mailmap Maybe get_maintainer.pl needs a change or perhaps this patch is appropriate. --- .mailmap | 12 ++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/.mailmap b/.mailmap index c0d5704..c7f92ca 100644 --- a/.mailmap +++ b/.mailmap @@ -96,7 +96,12 @@ Linus Lüssing <linus.luess...@c0d3.blue> <linus.luess...@web.de> Linus Lüssing <linus.luess...@c0d3.blue> <linus.luess...@ascom.ch> Mark Brown <broo...@sirena.org.uk> Matthieu CASTET <castet.matth...@free.fr> -Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mauroche...@gmail.com> <mche...@infradead.org> <mche...@redhat.com> <m.che...@samsung.com> <mche...@osg.samsung.com> <mche...@s-opensource.com> +Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mauroche...@gmail.com> +Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mche...@infradead.org> +Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mche...@redhat.com> +Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <m.che...@samsung.com> +Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mche...@osg.samsung.com> +Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mche...@kernel.org> <mche...@s-opensource.com> Matt Ranostay <mranos...@gmail.com> Matthew Ranostay <mranos...@embeddedalley.com> Matt Ranostay <mranos...@gmail.com> <matt.ranos...@intel.com> Mayuresh Janorkar <ma...@ti.com> @@ -132,7 +137,10 @@ Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilim...@oracle.org> Sascha Hauer <s.ha...@pengutronix.de> S.Çağlar Onur <cag...@pardus.org.tr> Shiraz Hashim <shiraz.linux.ker...@gmail.com> <shiraz.has...@st.com> -Shuah Khan <sh...@kernel.org> <shuahk...@gmail.com> <shuah.k...@hp.com> <shua...@osg.samsung.com> <shuah...@samsung.com> +Shuah Khan <sh...@kernel.org> <shuahk...@gmail.com> +Shuah Khan <sh...@kernel.org> <shuah.k...@hp.com> +Shuah Khan <sh...@kernel.org> <shua...@osg.samsung.com> +Shuah Khan <sh...@kernel.org> <shuah...@samsung.com> Simon Kelley <si...@thekelleys.org.uk> Stéphane Witzmann <stephane.witzm...@ubpmes.univ-bpclermont.fr> Stephen Hemminger <shemmin...@osdl.org>
