Hello,
I noticed many duplicates in email addresses but having the same name by
running:
# Finding out duplicates by comparing names:
git shortlog -sne |awk '{ NF--; $1=""; print }' |sort |uniq -d
Most of these entries are most probably the same person, but we cannot be
sure, as there might be different persons having the same name, then they
are only distinguished by the mail address.
However I suspect most of these to be the same person, having changed
mail addresses.
Here comes an initial batch of corrections to the mailmap file, which
maps people with email addresses of different capitalization onto
the same entity.
(Example Name@xxxxxxx is the same as Name@xxxxxxx)
I intend to contact each of the persons individually and ask whether
just their mail address changed, or if they are indeed different persons.
