Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2021-05-14 09:49:17 UTC
We have an entry for uid "jerry" (Jerry Alexandratos) and another entry for "jerrya" with almost no information.

Several commits in the gentoo-x86 CVS repository strongly suggest that these are the same person. Especially:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo/historical.git/commit/?id=a93d236e373802e8a8e5c8e932680a68f6a8f8fa
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo/historical.git/commit/?id=2ca8d4b7bb9bfde9e8cf82159f707ed974da9d67

The following mailing list posting supports the hypothesis that these are duplicates (note the abbreviated name in the From header and the full name in the footer):
https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/1187ce263640c44bb3a861e0c50bc843

I don't see a developer bug for either of them.
Comment 1 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2021-08-04 20:36:38 UTC
In the gentoo-x86 CVS commit history I see the following activity:

jerry:  90 commits between 2000-11-01 and 2001-07-22
jerrya: 27 commits between 2001-11-27 and 2001-12-19

So jerrya is newer but was only active during a period of a few days. I'd suggest adding jerrya as an alias to jerry (which has more information anyway).

I have deleted jerrya and added gentooAlias: jerrya to uid=jerry.
