I found it: git-shortlog.perl:28 says

        $desc =~ s#/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/#/.../#g;

And in builtin-shortlog.c:90 you can read

        const char *dot3 = "/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/";

and in lines 133--136:

        while ((p = strstr(buffer, dot3)) != NULL) {
                memcpy(p, "...", 3);
                strcpy(p + 2, p + sizeof(dot3) - 1);
        }

So, not only did I forget that git-shortlog has the path shortening, but I also forgot that I implemented it in the builtin shortlog, too.

Ciao, Dscho
