15DESCRIPTION
16-----------
17
18For each ``Name $$<user@host>$$'', ``$$<user@host>$$'', or ``$$user@host$$''
19from the command-line or standard input (when using `--stdin`), look up the
20person's canonical name and email address (see "Mapping Authors" below). If
21found, print them; otherwise print the input as-is.
22
23
24OPTIONS
25-------
26--stdin::
27 Read contacts, one per line, from the standard input after exhausting
28 contacts provided on the command-line.
29
30--mailmap-file=<file>::
31 In addition to any configured mailmap files, read the specified
32 mailmap file. Entries in this file take precedence over entries in
33 either the default mailmap file or any configured mailmap file.
34
35--mailmap-blob=<blob>::
36 Like `--mailmap-file`, but consider the value as a reference to a
37 blob in the repository. If both `--mailmap-file` and
38 `--mailmap-blob` are specified, entries in `--mailmap-file` will
39 take precedence.

41OUTPUT
42------
43
44For each contact, a single line is output, terminated by a newline. If the
45name is provided or known to the 'mailmap', ``Name $$<user@host>$$'' is
46printed; otherwise only ``$$<user@host>$$'' is printed.
