Thanks -- this is a convincing argument.

Gives me the following idea: the mailmap file supports comments (see at
the end of git-shortlog). Thus, at least when we extend our own mailmap
for edk2, we should always include some references (mailing list links,
commit hashes, etc) near the newly added entries that justify the entries.

Thanks!
