From: Joe Perches Date: Tue, 02 Aug 2016 16:36:21 GMT Subject: get_maintainer.pl and .mailmap entries with more than 2 addresses Message-ID: <1470155781.3998.181.camel@perches.com> 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 Is this a valid form? get_maintainer output for Mauro is: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl drivers/media/ -f Mauro Carvalho Chehab (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. ---  .mailmap | 12 ++++++++++--  1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/.mailmap b/.mailmap index c0d5704..c7f92ca 100644 --- a/.mailmap +++ b/.mailmap @@ -96,7 +96,12 @@ Linus Lüssing  Linus Lüssing  Mark Brown  Matthieu CASTET -Mauro Carvalho Chehab +Mauro Carvalho Chehab +Mauro Carvalho Chehab +Mauro Carvalho Chehab +Mauro Carvalho Chehab +Mauro Carvalho Chehab +Mauro Carvalho Chehab  Matt Ranostay Matthew Ranostay  Matt Ranostay  Mayuresh Janorkar @@ -132,7 +137,10 @@ Santosh Shilimkar  Sascha Hauer  S.Çağlar Onur  Shiraz Hashim -Shuah Khan +Shuah Khan +Shuah Khan +Shuah Khan  +Shuah Khan   Simon Kelley  Stéphane Witzmann  Stephen Hemminger
