[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-12280) [Developer] Remove @-mentions from commit messages in merge tool

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12280?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17319789#comment-17319789 ] 

Diana Clarke commented on ARROW-12280:
--------------------------------------

I would wager that this is a recently introduced GitHub notifications bug, and would give them a couple of weeks to resolve it before investing time scrubbing commit messages etc.

Other folks are newly seeing this too:

> When someone @-mentions someone in their PR description, it triggers spam e-mails in GitHub's system to all the mentioned people each time someone synchronizes their fork. For example, this commit triggered an e-mail to me

> It would be fairly each to sanitize @-mentions to simply strip the @-symbol, with the right regular expression of course (since the characters after the @ symbol can include hyphens or underscores, but otherwise any ASCII alphanumeric character)
