Ensure you use a Mailmap

The social metrics need to identify each developer that contributes code. Unfortunately, it’s common that developers have multiple Git aliases, which will bias the social metrics.

You avoid that bias by providing a .mailmap. A .mailmap is a Git feature. It’s a file that specifies a mapping from multiple aliases to one for each developer. CodeScene automatically uses the .mailmap when it’s present.

Read the Git Documentation on mapping authors for a description on how to configure the .mailmap.
