The [email protected] mailing list rewrites the From: header for DMARC reasons, so patches submitted via the list land in git as '<Real Name> via Devel <[email protected]>'. This currently affects 29 commits across 12 distinct contributors, all of whom are identifiable by their Signed-off-by trailer.
Add mailmap entries that remap each mangled identity back to the author's real name and address, matching the approach used by the Linux kernel for the same problem. Beyond cosmetic cleanup, this keeps contribution statistics (git shortlog, contributor graphs) accurate and ensures contributors get proper credit for their work, which is valuable when they look for new positions or otherwise need a verifiable record of upstream activity. This approach is standard for such situations in Linux kernel. I have seen this several times. Signed-off-by: Denis V.
