As outlined in my previous post. An author in git is identified
by "NAME <EMAIL>". We will rewrite commit information to match
this format during the SVN to Git migration. At the moment
this affects php-src only, but it will probably expand to other
repositories later.

We will use the stored realname for every account on master.php.net.
So if your

  | SVN username  | realname @ master.php.net | Git author name
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  | dsp           | David Soria Parra         | David Soria Parra <dsp@php.net>
  | foo           | Hans Foo                  | Hans Foo <foo@php.net>

The email address will always be username@php.net.

If you don't want your realname used in the author mapping, please write
a mail to dsp@php.net until December 29th.

Thanks
David
