I was quite surprised to see Dscho's name in here until I realised that this was just erroneous authorship information. Below is a mailmap patch to fix this.

Subject: [PATCH] .mailmap: fix erroneous authorship for Johannes Schindelin

In 49e268e23e (mingw: safeguard better against backslashes in file names, 2020-01-09), the commit author is listed as "Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>", which is erroneous. Fix the authorship by mapping the erroneous authorship to his canonical authorship information.
