I was trying to locate my patches in other private trees that were
ready for deletion. I wanted to make sure there wasn't something good
that I had forgotten about. I processed the output from 'git log' and
got tripped up matching the author field because is was full of junk.
My database background kicked in and I found myself on a tangent
cleaning up the data.

I have since learned about the existence of 'git shortlog' which
solved my problem. But I had already cleaned up the data before
finding it.
