If the file `.mailmap` exists at the toplevel of the repository, or at |
||||||
|
the location pointed to by the mailmap.file configuration option, it |
||||||
|
is used to map author and committer names and email addresses to |
||||||
|
canonical real names and email addresses. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the simple form, each line in the file consists of the canonical |
||||||
|
real name of an author, whitespace, and an email address used in the |
||||||
|
commit (enclosed by '<' and '>') to map to the name. Thus, looks like |
||||||
|
this |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
Proper Name <commit@email.xx> |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The more complex forms are |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
<proper@email.xx> <commit@email.xx> |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
which allows mailmap to replace only the email part of a commit, and |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
Proper Name <proper@email.xx> <commit@email.xx> |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
which allows mailmap to replace both the name and the email of a |
||||||
|
commit matching the specified commit email address, and |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
Proper Name <proper@email.xx> Commit Name <commit@email.xx> |
||||||
|
-- |
||||||
|
which allows mailmap to replace both the name and the email of a |
||||||
|
commit matching both the specified commit name and email address. |
||||||
|
|
||||||

Example 1: Your history contains commits by two authors, Jane |
||||||
|
and Joe, whose names appear in the repository under several forms: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
Joe Developer <joe@example.com> |
||||||
|
Joe R. Developer <joe@example.com> |
||||||
|
Jane Doe <jane@example.com> |
||||||
|
Jane Doe <jane@laptop.(none)> |
||||||
|
Jane D. <jane@desktop.(none)> |
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now suppose that Joe wants his middle name initial used, and Jane |
||||||
|
prefers her family name fully spelled out. A proper `.mailmap` file |
||||||
|
would look like: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
Jane Doe <jane@desktop.(none)> |
||||||
|
Joe R. Developer <joe@example.com> |
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note how we don't need an entry for <jane@laptop.(none)>, because the |
||||||
|
real name of that author is correct already. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Example 2: Your repository contains commits from the following |
||||||
|
authors: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
nick1 <bugs@company.xx> |
||||||
|
nick2 <bugs@company.xx> |
||||||
|
nick2 <nick2@company.xx> |
||||||
|
santa <me@company.xx> |
||||||
|
claus <me@company.xx> |
||||||
|
CTO <cto@coompany.xx> |
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then, you might want a `.mailmap` file looking like: |
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
<cto@company.xx> <cto@coompany.xx> |
||||||
|
Some Dude <some@dude.xx> nick1 <bugs@company.xx> |
||||||
|
Other Author <other@author.xx> nick2 <bugs@company.xx> |
||||||
|
Other Author <other@author.xx> <nick2@company.xx> |
||||||
|
Santa Claus <santa.claus@northpole.xx> <me@company.xx> |
||||||
|
------------ |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use hash '#' for comments that are either on their own line, or after |
||||||
|
the email address. |
