Doublons in contributors list

[delahondes]

What needs to be fixed?

First, I'm not too proud of this, this is very stupid glitch, but that's it. I was just curious about rust contributors list
(like this one : https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.51.0/)

I was looking for French names and I found some relatively unusual French-like names several times like "Amanieu d'Antras" which appear at positions 61 and 88.

This can be found using this script:

w3m -dump https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.51.0/|awk -F"  " '{print $2}'|sort|uniq -c|grep -v 1

which answers:

     20 
      2  Amanieu d'Antras
      2  Ashley Mannix
      2  Ian Jackson
      2  Ryan Scheel
      2 Bastian Kersting
      2 Tristan Dannenberg
      2 Weihang Lo

Page(s) Affected

Nearly all on thanks.rust-lang.org but definitively:

https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/all-time
https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.51.0/
https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.50.0/
https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.49.0/
https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.48.0/
https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.47.0/

Suggested Improvement

Merge the homonymous lines numbers.

The names need to be deduplicated in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/.mailmap.

Thanks, and sorry that I am of so little help, I kind of understand the principle of this file and I could complete it but then I don't have access to the history of email of the different authors (I can access only the last AFAIK). And it seems some pages were manually corrected already without any change in this file: no more duplication in https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/1.51.0/ (and I could not find entries in the file for the unduplicated authors).
