You are likely referring to this, right? 755c92c
Is the email address incorrect?

We could create a .mailmap, but for this we need a bit more context ^^

[kindercat]

I've done some testing on Weblate in the mail section and I think it will be a good idea if the commits can be linked to the no-reply identity from github to avoid spam.
And of course, if this identity is linked, the github profile should also be displayed. If you check the next commit, another identity is selected but the github profile is not linked.

[CommanderStorm]

If you use an identity which I assume is not linked+verified to/for your account, like kindercat@users.noreply.weblate.kuma.pet, this will not be linked to your account as far as I understand

[CommanderStorm]

we can add this as an alias for [REDACTED]@gmail.com in a .mailmap, but I sort of doubt that this achives what you want...

Note that spam is not a real issue.
I have not seen more spam in my mailbox from contributing actively on GitHub. The only spam I receive can be traced back to stupid things I did in the past and being included in data leaks.

[kindercat]

If you can edit the commit and this issue with the weblate or github identity is ok for me :)

I really appreciate this project and I want to help more.

[CommanderStorm]

Editing commits is a medium pain and requires rebasing.
cc @louislam given that you manage weblate ^^

This is the mentiended commit d680858

What post?

[kindercat]

This one #4382 (comment)

[CommanderStorm]

So you want your weblate contributions to not be displayed on github?
=> both commits to have kindercat@users.noreply.weblate.kuma.pet instead?

[kindercat]

Yes. Only the username is ok for me.
You can use kindercat@users.noreply.weblate.kuma.pet or no-reply identity from github.

[louislam]

Unfortunately, Weblate don't let me to control the git repo either. There are only two actions I can do: Commit and Push, which do not seem to be able to change the commit message.

[louislam]

Maybe I can merge #4270 to a temporary branch, and rebase your commit before merging to the main branch.

[kindercat]

Maybe this is usefull https://youtu.be/BNF4le5X1Ms?si=UtLIOdp8q50plFk_
If not, it's not that bad.. just delete this issue and I'm fine.

In the meanwhile I just saw the last commit with the github no-reply identity and it's linked. So that is the correct option to select.
