Description

Discussed at http://moodle.org/mod/cvsadmin/view.php?conversationid=1261:

This is a feature request to automatically generate a file of CVS commit authors that could be used by git-cvsimport? The format is as follows:
skodak=Petr Skoda <skodak@moodle.org>
mudrd8mz=David Mudrak <david.mudrak@gmail.com>
...

Developers using git to track Moodle CVS could use this file during CVS import so the real names appears in the git commit description instead of current
Author: skodak <skodak>

If Catalyst use such file for their moodle-r2.git, we have very nice git-ish mirror of CVS tree.

The only time I ever did this I made the file manually. I can only tell you the process works

Surely you could generate this file from the list of committers you have on moodle.org already?

Now that we've migrated to Git, is this mapping table still needed or can we close this issue? Peace - Anthony

Anthony, I need that file every time I migrate some current module from CVS CONTRIB to a new Git repository (like I did with Book or Stamp collection). So no, this is not to be closed yet but I think that it can be re-assigned to Jordan as he should have all data available (or most of them).
