I think counting merges in "The Authors of Git" statistics give quite
skewed numbers. If you are generating it with "shortlog", you probably
would want to give --no-merges to the command line as well. Also it
appears that you are not using .mailmap to avoid counting the same person
as different people.
I find a tabular list like this list easier to read if it were sorted like
this:
A D G
B E H
C F
i.e. not like this:
A B C
D E F
G H
Thanks Junio,
I fixed the things you mentioned here, except for the list ordering,
only because I kinda think you big contributors should be at the top
there, and also because it's slightly more difficult to populate an
html table that way :) If everyone feels strongly about that, though,
I will change it.
