While working with code, it is often useful to know who to go to when you need to perform a fix in the software, especially in an area where you are inexperienced. So, it would be nice to figure out who is the code owner of the file or the files you are changing. The obvious reason is to get some input on the code, but also to know who to go to for a code review. You can again use git shortlog to figure this out. You can use the command on the files as well:
$ git shortlog --numbered --summary --email ./pom.xml
