v2.18.0-rc0~70^2 (mailmap: update brian m. carlson's email address,
2018-05-08) changed the mailmap to map
sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-> brian m. carlson <sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
instead of
sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-> brian m. carlson <sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
That means the mapping
Brian M. Carlson <sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
-> brian m. carlson <sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
is redundant, so we can remove it. More importantly, it means that
the identity "Brian M. Carlson <sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>" used in
some commits is not normalized any more. Add a mapping for it.
Noticed while updating Debian's Git packaging, which uses "git
shortlog --no-merges" to produce a list of changes in each version,
grouped by author's (normalized) name.

Sorry to leave this hanging for so long. How about this patch?
Thanks,
