@webknjaz Would you prefer to keep the Ukrainian flag and spelling in your display name? |
Contributor

@hugovk I'm good with just the English spelling in the commit messages / metadata / mapping file. I have that mainly for the GH UI but if you're looking to have ASCII-only entries, feel free to update it. (did I guess your motivation correctly?) |

OK, all good! My motivation is for people to have their names shown as they wish. (I don't think things need to be restricted to ASCII, we have Bernát and Jürgen in there.) |

Interesting difference for shortlog which "tripped" me to place PR back into draft:
I took PR into draft since saw something which didn't align with my memory of seeing on master

git logdiffsince it also included the emails. And without emails -- match fine
and after introducing
.mailmap, git log also starts mapping emails uniformly🤖 Generated with Claude Code
