I > still do not think it is a good idea, though. Fine, If this option is really not particularly useful, I am willing to give it up. I am looking for how to extract each author or committer from the log. I just know I can use: $ git log --pretty="%an %ae" | sort | uniq get all unique author <email> from a git repo. Is there any function in the source code of git to get them? I notice Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason mentioned `.mailmap`, I have seen the `.mailmap` under git repo. Would it be better to extract the author or committer from the .mailmap than to extract it from git log? If so, the operation of the trailer may depend on the contents of `.mailmap`. If there is no `.mailmap` in the user git repo, then the identity in the trailer cannot be parsed. Thanks.
