31 git-check-mailmap \- Show canonical names and email addresses of contacts
35 \fIgit check\-mailmap\fR [<options>] <contact>\&...
40 For each \(lqName <user@host>\(rq or \(lq<user@host>\(rq from the command\-line or standard input (when using \fB\-\-stdin\fR), look up the person\(cqs canonical name and email address (see "Mapping Authors" below)\&. If found, print them; otherwise print the input as\-is\&.
45 Read contacts, one per line, from the standard input after exhausting contacts provided on the command\-line\&.
49 For each contact, a single line is output, terminated by a newline\&. If the name is provided or known to the \fImailmap\fR, \(lqName <user@host>\(rq is printed; otherwise only \(lq<user@host>\(rq is printed\&.
52 See \fBmailmap\&.file\fR and \fBmailmap\&.blob\fR in \fBgit-config\fR(1) for how to specify a custom \fB\&.mailmap\fR target file or object\&.
55 See \fBgitmailmap\fR(5)\&.
