Re: Generate AUTHORS file

[mmann78 () netscape net]

One thing I noticed when I reviewed one of the .mailman patches you've submitted was that some authors have multiple 
email addresses.  Do we really want to include them all?  I thought the current AUTHORS file typically only has one 
(hopefully "latest" email address)

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Generate AUTHORS file


 
  
   
    
     
      
       
        
Hi,         
         
        
I think, it will be great to have a AUTHORS file generate from Git.        
        
       
I have already add .mailmap for try to fix duplicate entry (        https://code.wireshark.org/review/#/c/5841/ )       
       
      
The second step is "move" missing authors to "git" for this, i have start to remove entry in AUTHORS file using 
--author git option       
      
i have push a start of work on my wireshark github repo :       
      https://github.com/alagoutte/wireshark/tree/git-author      
      
     
     
Need to push ~800 commit for add all AUTHORS...      
     
     
It is ok for you ?     
     
    
    
if somebody, will no be longer display in AUTHORS, only need to add a entry on .mailmap

After when, you generate the list of AUTHORS, all Alexis La Goutte commit will be display with Anonymous     
     
    
    
After it will be possible to generate the AUTHORS with git     
    
    
     
    
   
I will need help for generate AUTHORS file for Autotools and CMake ;-) (i have already the git command...)   
   
  
Regards,
