DMD and D Runtime were merged together into one repository, this 
includes all histories, so I suspects it's picking up all authors 
from that.

You can verify the what was read in by the changelog tools by 
running:
```
git log --pretty='format:%aN|%aE' v2.100.2..v2.101.0-beta.1 | 
sort -u
```

See https://github.com/dlang/tools/blob/master/contributors.d#L81

I think for this release only, we can work around this by using 
pathspecs to exclude druntime.

```
(
   git -C dmd log --pretty='format:%aN|%aE' 
v2.100.2..upstream/stable ':!druntime'
   git -C dmd log --pretty='format:%aN|%aE' 
v2.100.2..upstream/stable druntime
   git -C druntime log --pretty='format:%aN|%aE' 
v2.100.2..upstream/stable
) | sort -u
```
