The answer is not "The tool doesn't work like I want, so screw it." If
the tool doesn't work like we want, then we need to fix the tool not
just walk away. Not to mention that the people involved in making these
patches should still be CC'ing people even if this tool is just helping
them out instead of actually doing it for them.

What it's showing you is anyone that's ever modified those files.. You
just need the people who maintain the files.

how about this,

git show 08a610d9ef5394525b0328da0162d7b58c982cc4 | ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl | wc
     58     163    2169

That's the patch we're actually discussing too. It's about one CC per
file modified.
