# After collecting all the paginated data, we still aren't done.
# GitHub's API, for some reason, has a hard cap on 500 email addresses per repo which it will collate
# SS14 has gone past this limit for quite some time, so GitHub will stop including accounts, starting
# with those that have lower contributions, as valid distinct users with a `login` field.
#
# This is obviously a problem.
# To remedy, we first use the ?anon=1 parameter to force GitHub to include all committers emails, even
# those that it has, in its great and infinite wisdom, chosen to not properly attach to a GitHub account.
#
# Of course, this is normally an issue -- we use this API specifically because we want to only get
# committers with valid GitHub accounts, otherwise we pollute the contributor log with random aliases
# and names that people don't use, things like that.
#
# So, okay, solution:
# 1) Go over our list, and check for ones which only have a `name` and `email` field ('anonymous' contributors)
# and which dont already appear.
# 2) Check to see if the email ends with `@users.noreply.github.com`.
# - To my knowledge, GitHub includes an email in the form of `(numbers)+(username)@users.noreply.github.com`
# - when commits are made using someones GitHub account, and they aren't attaching another email to their account
# 3) If an email of this form was found, we can assume this is one of the 'missing' contribs and extract their GitHub username.
# 4) If an email of this form -wasn't- found, but they're still anonymous, we -unfortunately- still have to check if they're a valid GitHub user
# because GitHub might have just force-anonymized them anyway!
#
# It's possible their `name` is a valid GitHub user, but that this is a coincidence and they aren't actually a contributor.
# There is kind of not really jack shit we can do about that! It's not that common though and it's probably more likely to attribute
# correctly than not.
# 5) Then, we just add a `login` field to our object with their true username and let the rest of the code do its job.
