I don't have another example, but i have seen it many times. This happens
when people use different repo's to send patches and by mistake have mentioned
names in different case in them in their local .git/config files.

By the way, the mailmap ignore case which is annoying.
I have commits as damien.olivier.robert+...@gmail.com and a dummy email
address robert@numenor.night-elves. I thought that putting:

Damien Robert  

in the .mailmap would unify the two adresses, but it does not:

git shortlog -se
15  Damien Robert 
266  Damien Robert 

as you can see, the Damien.Olivier.Robert+git as been lowercased to
damien.olivier.robert, so I am forced to write a mailmap like this:

Damien Robert  
Damien Robert  


git shortlog -se
   281  Damien Robert

I don't see how wrong case is different from any other form of misspelling. And 
mailmap is there precisely to handle such problems. Now, if these case issues 
were for some reasons very frequent, it might be worth adding dedicated support 
for it. But this seems dubious to me -- do you have any evidence for this? 
Indeed, do you have more than just the one example?

In a nutshell, there seem to be two options here, and I know which *I* find 
more appealing ;)

1) continue this discussion over several emails to design a new feature (an 
option, config setting, whatever) to handle your special case, then sit down 
and write code for it, add documentation, add test cases to test it.

2) You just add a single entry to your mailmap to solve your problem at hand. 
:-)

Repeating what i said to David in other mail:

I have my name there :)

I thought using names with different case is actually different then misspelling
it. And so, everybody must not be required to update their names in mailmap
with different case. So, with same email id and same name (that may be in
different case), we can show commits together in shortlog.

Have a look at the .mailmap file in the top directory of your repo.

I have my name there :)

I thought using names with different case is actually different then misspelling
it. And so, everybody must not be required to update their names in mailmap
with different case. So, with same email id and same name (that may be in
different case), we can show commits together in shortlog.

There's a feature that does exactly this.

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-shortlog.html

See the section called "Mapping Authors".
It discusses the .mailmap file.

[Query] Can we ignore case for commiters name in shortlog?

Hi Junio and others,

I have a query. git shortlog lists the patches submitted per commiter, like:

I know, there was something wrong at my end and i have commited stuff
with different cases.

I was just thinking if we can ignore case for commiter name while
listing stuff here?
So, that we get over any manual mistakes from commiter.
