If > the latter, I don't think the solution is satisfactory. I do believe it was the latter, and I think it=E2=80=99s not a big deal in practice. The authors got due notice. In theory, it should be possible to pre-create user accounts for each known email address, and do a perfect migration =E2=80=9Cas if=E2=80=9D Git= Lab had always existed and been in use. Maybe even doctor the comments so as to strip excessive quoting if any, and mark up patches as code blocks. (The same idea as ESR does any-version-control-system-to-Git conversions.)
