Ooh, sounds like a good catch.

Not intentional.  Looks like it has already merged to next, though, or
I'd reroll and correct.  Maybe I should submit an entry for .mailmap.

(Hard drive in my work computer died somewhat recently.  There, I use
my work email for most things; almost everything other than git.git.
When recloning git.git on my replacement computer, I forgot to set
user.email in my git.git clone to override the value found in the
global ~/.gitconfig.)
