Subject: Allow "git shortlog" to group by committer information
Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2016 11:45:58 -0700

In some situations you may want to group the commits not by author, but by 
committer instead.

For example, when I just wanted to look up what I'm still missing from 
linux-next in the current merge window, I don't care so much about who 
wrote a patch, as what git tree it came from, which generally boils down 
to "who committed it".

So make git shortlog take a "-c" or "--committer" option to switch 
grouping to that. During the merge window this allows me to do things like

   git shortlog -cnse linus..next |
        head -20 |
        cut -f2 |
        sed 's/$/,/'

to easily create a list of the top-20 committers that I haven't gotten 
pull requests from yet (the committer is not necessarily the person who 
will send the pull request, but it's a reasonably good approximation).
