Steps

Use this good git alias

git config --global alias.summary '! git shortlog --summary --numbered --email --all --no-merges'

Run git summary at the root of the repo, you'll get something like

517  Muhammad Sulaiman <[email protected]>
514  Muhammad <[email protected]>
468  My Friend <90533@LAPTOP-ABV>
8  Friend Name <[email protected]>

Create .mailmap file at repo root, first line tells git that this name has this e-mail, second line tells git that there is another alias for this name-email, that uses this second email.. and so on

Muhammad Sulaiman <[email protected]>
Muhammad Sulaiman <[email protected]> <[email protected]>
Friend Name <[email protected]>
Friend Name <[email protected]> <90533@LAPTOP-ABV>

Run git summary again, you'll get something like
