Add authors to rever

[CJ-Wright]

I think we might need a regenerate authors command. That way when changes are made to the authors yaml we can update the generated files. The setup command created a thing with Christopher. I then changed the yaml file but I don't know how to regenerate the other files and make sure things are correct.

rever -f -a authors setup will regenerate the authors

[CJ-Wright]

I got:

(regro) christopher@christopher-ubuntu ~/dev/rever rever_authors $ rever -f -a authors setup
Activity 'authors' has already been setup!

[scopatz]

That seems like a bug.

[scopatz]

Looking into it

[scopatz]

Fix is in #166

[scopatz]

Ok merge from master and try it again :)

[CJ-Wright]

Ok, I'll add docs on the force setup for doing this again

[scopatz]

Thanks!

[CJ-Wright]

Re-doing acctivity 'authors' which has already been setup!
Authors file 'AUTHORS' exists AND Mailmap file '.mailmap' exists
rever forced, overwriting files!
'igor.ghisi@gmail.com' does not have 'Igor T. Ghisi' listed! Please add the name to 'igor.ghisi@gmail.com' in '.authors.yml'. For example:

- name: Igor T. Ghisi
  email: igor.ghisi@gmail.com

Or add an alias:

- name: Some Body Else
  email: igor.ghisi@gmail.com
  aliases:
    - Igor T. Ghisi

Yeah that seems like it is supposed to happen. As the error message says, you need to edit the .authors.yml file

[scopatz]

I don't still don't understand how you got such a weird .authors.yml file. You may want to blow it away and start again.

[scopatz]

My .authors.yml file looks like:

I think there is a bug in this, I'm going to open a new PR but the duplicate stuff is not doing the right thing.
