+# This file allows mapping several author and committer email addresses and
+# names to a single canonical one for `git shortlog`, `git log --author`,
+# or `git check-mailmap`.
+#
+# For example, if you commit as `random.person@example.com` but sometimes use
+# "Rañdom Person" and sometimes "Random Person" as name and you want the former
+# to be your canonical name, add
+#
+# Rañdom Person <random.person@example.com>
+#
+# If you commit as both `random.person@example.com` and `ranp@example.com` and
+# you want the former to be your canonical email address, add
+#
+# <random.person@example.com> <ranp@example.com>
+#
+# Combinations of both are possible too, see
+# https://git-scm.com/docs/gitmailmap for format details.
+#
+# You can commit changes for your own names and email addresses without review.
+# If you want to add entries for other people, please have them review the
+# addition.
+#
+# Please keep this file sorted.
