     171=== Authorship: Recognizing the GRASS GIS contributors during and after migration ===
     172
     173In the !GitHub repository the "contributors" list contains only the authors who have a !GitHub account which was known to us during the migration. We used the lookup table `AUTHORS.txt` which maps SVN account to the respective !GitHub account (in [https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass-addons/tools/svn2git addons/tools/svn2git/]). We also even mapped multiple CVS/SVN accounts to the proper !GitHub account (some developers changed their account name in the transition from CVS to SVN).
     174
     175Importantly, the contributors list still covers only a tiny fraction of the [https://grass.osgeo.org/home/credits/ real authorship]!
     176
     177Now, if you/someone isn't listed yet under contributors:
     178 * please get a !GitHub account and/or communicate it to us (name + related email)
     179 * Or, simply, to match your commits to your !GitHub account, just add your associated email address(es) to your account in order to [https://github.com/settings/emails claim your contributions].

     181Updating is always possible and easy, so nothing is lost.
