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
Anonymous <anonymous@xxxxxxxxx> Alexis La Goutte <alexis.lagoutte@xxxxxxxxx>
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,
