Subject: [PATCH] check-mailmap doc: note config options
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add a passing mention of the mailmap.file and mailmap.blob
configuration options. Before this addition a reader of the
"check-mailmap" manpage would have no idea that a custom map could be
specified, unless they'd happen to e.g. come across it in the "config"
manpage first.
