Thread: Committers info for the git migration - URGENT!
Attention committers!! ;) When we migrate to git, we will do a one-time mapping of your old username to an email address (as was discussed on the developer meeting in Ottawa earlier this year). This is stamped on every commit you have ever done, since that's how git works. It's part of the commit itself, so it *cannot* be changed once this is done. We can of course change which email address is used for *new* commits, but not for the existing once once they have gone in. The current mapping used is the same one as on git.postgresql.org (see attached file). Per discussions earlier on this list, we encourage people to use an email address that is permanent and stable, and does not for example change if you change your ISP or if you change employer. But in the end, the decision of which email address to use is up to you. If you want to *change* your email address from the one in the list attached here, please let me know *ASAP*. At the latest I need to know this before tuesday evening european time (see separate email about migration timeline). Since there is now a very tight timeline on this (sorry!), please ping any other committers you have on your IM/IRC list that you know don't read their -hackers email daily... -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

BTW, I noticed that this list omits several old committers:
162 bryanh 20 byronn 6 julian 1 mcguirk
(the numbers are the number of commits I find in cvs2cl for each name).
I am pretty sure of the first two:
Bryan Henderson <bryanh@giraffe.netgate.net>
Byron Nikolaidis <byronn@insightdist.com>
and I think the others are
Julian Assange <proff@suburbia.net>
Dan McGuirk <mcguirk@indirect.com>
though they're before my time.

Yowza ... *that* Julian Assange? Cool, but maybe we shouldn't
advertise the connection ;-)

There's half a dozen commits from back around 1996 applied by Marc
on behalf of Julian Assange <proff@suburbia.net>, and then about
half a dozen committed by "julian" without any other ID. The first
of the former is
1996-07-18 01:48 scrappy
* src/: bin/monitor/monitor.c, bin/psql/psql.c,interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c, interfaces/libpq/libpq-fe.h: libpq andpsql.c
havebeen modified to do various things they didn't dobefore (plus some optimisations/bug fixes et al). I've included
asmalldemo transcript below. Note that all of of the displayfunctionality/intelligence you see here, can be had merely
bycallingthe new LIBPQ PQprint() routine with the appropriatearguments/options, including the HTML3 output
guff.submittedby: Julian Assange <proff@suburbia.net>
and the last of the latter is
1996-08-20 20:22 julian
* src/bin/psql/psql.c: command line flag for expanded display '-x'had logic reversed
So far as I can see, he only contributed to psql not the backend.
Oh wait, here is one where he identifies himself as "proff":
1996-07-25 02:46 julian
* src/bin/psql/psql.c: Large re-write/enhancement. In pg-101 Jollyonly included a smaller part of my (proff) patch.
Thisis the restof it, with a few, mainly aesthetic changes. I've removed a lot ofredundency from the original code,
addedsupport for the newPQprint() routines in libpq, expanded tables, and a few generallynifty ways of massaging data
inand out of the backend. Still needssome good stress testing.
So this committer is him, not some other Julian.

Just for the archives, would you post the current list? I lost track of
who asked for their email entries to be changed.

Yes, both emails were valid. The fourplams is one he used only toward

I wonder whether we shouldn't use the most recent address we have
for the git conversion, though.
Thomas, do you have a preference? See
