get_maintainer.pl and .mailmap entries with more than 2 addresses

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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 <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> <maurochehab@xxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> <m.chehab@xxxxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Is this a valid form?

get_maintainer output for Mauro is:

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl drivers/media/ -f
Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> <maurochehab@xxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> <m.chehab@xxxxxxxxxxx> <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (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.
