Alex Bennée f4cf1edc3b .mailmap/aliases: add some further commentary
The two files are not interchangeable but a change to one *might*
require a change to the other so lets flag that up with an explanation
of what both files are trying to achieve. While we are at it document
the many forms .mailmap can take in the header.

# This is the email aliases file, mapping secondary addresses onto a
# single, canonical address. It duplicates some info from .mailmap so
# if you are adding something here also consider if the .mailmap needs
# updating.
#
# If you just want to avoid gitdm complaining about author fields
# which are actually email addresses with the message:
#
# "...is an author name, probably not what you want"
#
# you can just apply --use-mailmap to you git-log command, e.g:
#
# git log --use-mailmap --numstat --since "last 2 years" | $GITDM
#
# however that will have the effect of squashing multiple addresses to
# a canonical address which will distort the stats of those who
# contribute in both personal and professional capacities from
# different addresses.
