PROFILE

Greg Hurrell

Worked on Homebrew/homebrew-core and microsoft/git, focusing on maintainability and data quality. Delivered version embedding for Clipper in Homebrew, updating the build process to use Ruby and ldflags so that both stable and HEAD builds report accurate version information. This included fixing a version display bug in bottle installs and validating the solution across Homebrew’s tooling. In microsoft/git, consolidated multiple contributor email addresses into a single mailmap entry, improving attribution clarity in git logs and release notes.

2025-09 Microsoft/git: Focused on improving attribution accuracy by consolidating multiple contributor addresses into a single mailmap entry. The primary deliverable was a mailmap consolidation for Greg Hurrell, unifying three addresses (win@wincent.com, greg@hurrell.net, greg.hurrell@datadoghq.com) into one auditable identity, with proper Signed-off-by lines. This change enhances attribution clarity for reviews, releases, governance, and contributor metrics, while keeping churn minimal (no behavioral changes to code). The commit 215033b3ac599432a17d58f18a92b356d98354a9 documents the consolidation and ensures traceability across history.
