Create a gitmailmap(5) page similar to how .gitmodules and .gitignore have their own pages at gitmodules(5) and gitignore(5). Now instead of "check-mailmap", "blame" and "shortlog" documentation including the description of the format we link to one canonical place. This makes things easier for readers, since in our manpage or web-based[1] output it's not clear that the "MAPPING AUTHORS" sections aren't subtly different, as opposed to just included. 1. https://git-scm.com/docs/git-check-mailmap Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

|
git-check-mailmap - Show canonical names and email addresses of contacts
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git check-mailmap' [<options>] <contact>...
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
For each ``Name $$<user@host>$$'' or ``$$<user@host>$$'' from the command-line
|
|
or standard input (when using `--stdin`), look up the person's canonical name
|
|
and email address (see "Mapping Authors" below). If found, print them;
|
|
otherwise print the input as-is.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
--stdin::
|
|
Read contacts, one per line, from the standard input after exhausting
|
|
contacts provided on the command-line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
For each contact, a single line is output, terminated by a newline. If the
|
|
name is provided or known to the 'mailmap', ``Name $$<user@host>$$'' is
|
|
printed; otherwise only ``$$<user@host>$$'' is printed.
