It is a bit hard for us to convince ourselves that Wincent Colaiuta and Greg Hurrel are the same person, though. The only way I can think of offhand is to leave this message in the mailing list briefly and see if a different Wincent comes and complains ;-) ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2025-09-17 22:14 Subject: Re: [PATCH] mailmap: consolidate multiple addresses into one Message-ID: <4d47677c-787e-59ca-84f8-5ebf59947b0c@gmx.de> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/4d47677c-787e-59ca-84f8-5ebf59947b0c%40gmx.de In-Reply-To: ``` Hi, On Wed, 3 Sep 2025, Junio C Hamano wrote: > "Greg Hurrell via GitGitGadget" writes: > > > From: Greg Hurrell > > > > Merges contributions made from three different addresses: > > > > - win@wincent.com (old address, initial contributions in 2007–2009) > > - greg@hurrell.net (personal address matching full name, so this one is > > the "forever" address; contributions made starting in 2018) > > - greg.hurrell@datadoghq.com (current work address, used for recent > > contributions) > > Consolidating to a single "forever" address is good. > > It is a bit hard for us to convince ourselves that Wincent Colaiuta > and Greg Hurrel are the same person, though.

I can also guarantee that you will enjoy hearing the story behind it, although it might require you to buy Greg/Wincent a beer or two (which I guarantee you won't regret, either). Ciao, Johannes ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2025-09-17 22:52 Subject: Re: [PATCH] mailmap: consolidate multiple addresses into one Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/xmqqtt10adzk.fsf%40gitster.g In-Reply-To: <4d47677c-787e-59ca-84f8-5ebf59947b0c@gmx.de> ``` Johannes Schindelin writes: >> Consolidating to a single "forever" address is good. >> >> It is a bit hard for us to convince ourselves that Wincent Colaiuta >> and Greg Hurrel are the same person, though.

What a coincidence. I declared "absense of objection is good enough" after waiting for a few weeks, and applied the mailmap change directly to 'master' this morning ;-) Thanks. It is nice to be supported by a positive confirmation, not just absense of objection ;-) > I can also guarantee that you will enjoy hearing the story behind it, > although it might require you to buy Greg/Wincent a beer or two (which I > guarantee you won't regret, either). ``` ## Greg Hurrell, 2025-09-18 06:41 Subject: Re: [PATCH] mailmap: consolidate multiple addresses into one Message-ID: <72340d21-0755-4b1b-bf73-5f820266998e@app.fastmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/72340d21-0755-4b1b-bf73-5f820266998e%40app.fastmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Thu, Sep 18, 2025, at 12:52 AM, Junio C Hamano wrote: > Johannes Schindelin writes: > > > I can vouch for Greg, having worked with him during our mutual time at > > GitHub that I greatly enjoyed, and can say with conviction that his GitHub > > handle @wincent corresponds to the name Wincent Colaiuta. > > ... > > Thanks.
