NAME
    Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ContributorsFile - add a file listing all
    contributors

VERSION
    version 0.2.0

SYNOPSIS
    In dist.ini:

        [ContributorsFromGit]

        [ContributorsFile]
        filename = CONTRIBUTORS

DESCRIPTION
    "Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ContributorsFile" populates a *CONTRIBUTORS* file
    with all the contributors of the project as found by
    "Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ContributorsFromGit" (which also need to be
    present in your "dist.ini").

    The generated file will look like this:

        # FOO-BAR CONTRIBUTORS #

        This is the (likely incomplete) list of people who have helped
        make this distribution what it is, either via code contributions, 
        patches, bug reports, help with troubleshooting, etc. A huge
        thank to all of them.

            * Albert Zoot <zoo@foo.com>
            * Bertrand Maxwell <maxwell@bar.com>

    Note that if no contributor is detected beside the actual author of the
    module, the file will not be created.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
  filename
    The name of the contributor file that is created. Defaults to
    *CONTRIBUTORS*.

TRICKS
    Refer to David Golden's blog entry at
    <http://www.dagolden.com/index.php/1921/how-im-using-distzilla-to-give-c
    redit-to-contributors/> to get introduced to the "Dist::Zilla"
    contributor modules.

    Git's ".mailmap" file is useful to deal with contributors with several
    email addresses:
    <https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-shortlog.html>.

    To give credit to bug reporters and other persons who don't commit code
    directly, you can use empty git commits:

        git commit --allow-empty --author="David Golden <dagolden@cpan.org>" -m "..."
