Which is why you should be careful to never use your actual email in git commits.

When I made a patch to the Linux kernel I did have to use a real email, since you have to send to their mailing list. I used a throwaway email for it, which I have since edited on my mail server config to forward to /dev/null (yes, I'm one of the weirdos still self hosting email in 2026). The amount of spam I got was insane, and not even developer relevant spam.
