1. Review the comma-separated (CSV) file in /PATH/REPO-NAME.git/git-import/raw-authors.csv. It should contain these columns:

   • ID: The author as stored in the original repository, followed by a unique identifier
   • NAME: The author as stored in the original repository

   To map authors from the original repository to an email address and name, create a new CSV file with the columns ID,(ignored),GIT_EMAIL,GIT_NAME, which replaces the author information for anything by "ID" with "GIT_EMAIL" and "GIT_NAME".

   Example:

   • Original author ID: octocat@111111-2222-3333-4444-55555555555
   • New email address: octocat@github.com
   • New name: The Octocat

   To map the original author to the new Git user, the CSV file should include the line:

   octocat@111111-2222-3333-4444-55555555555, ,octocat@github.com,The Octocat
