Re: [PATCH v2] allow user aliases for the --author parameter

My only complaint is:

I am too lazy to hit "shift", so I would use "-i".

I thought about it after writing the one you saw on the list, but from the
beginning I was planning to do this merely as a demonstration patch that
somebody who is interested in the feature can polish and resubmit with
test and documentation.  I didn't bother adding such frills --- that is
part of "polish and resubmit" cycle.
