Description

Separating the work from #5877 in two MR. @DanielNoord

We need to find duplicate of email and name in the shortlog.

For example 'frostming' has a duplicate as I open this MR

- Frost Ming <[email protected]> (frostming <[email protected]>)

Needs a conf like:

  "[email protected]": {
    "mails": ["[email protected]", "[email protected]"],
    "name": "Frost Ming"
  }

So we treat it properly.

@Pierre-Sassoulas I just changed the script/.contributors_aliases.json format for now to use the correct key:value pairs.

Had you thought about how you want to store the information from the * ....... lines? Will that be in the aliases file? Currently if you regenerate CONTRIBUTORS it will be removed.

At first I assumed name was unique, but it's not, we have a "Carl" for example. So I use email now and it permits to change the name if we have the email. At least the email should be unique unless someone is not using a real email (it happens too). I'm afraid we're going to have to throw away some contributions with a bad name and no email (or [email protected]). To uniformize the config file I use : contributors-txt-normalize-configuration -a scripts/.contributors_aliases.json -o scripts/.contributors_aliases.json (then pre-commit). There a check for unicity of email here : https://github.com/Pierre-Sassoulas/contributors-txt/blob/main/contributors_txt/create_content.py#L78.

Ah okay, I'll let you handle this then. No point in having two captains on one ship 😄
