Oops, sorry about that. It ships in the /usr/lib/git-core directory
these days (it _used_ to ship in /usr/bin, so "." would find it
automatically). And when I did my test, I was using the git repository
itself, so of course it was in my current directory then. :)

But it looks like you found it.

Yep, it should be your name. So my next to suspect would be the
git-mailinfo parser, and indeed, that's the thing that has the
3-character limit that Erik mentioned.

So that's definitely the problem.
