The behavior of get_maintainers.pl changed few months ago and now it
prints recent GIT activity only when there are no maintainers. To me
personally, this is desired because otherwise a lot of people will be
spammed on every patch. If someone wants to notify not only maintainers
but also other people then he should use --git (which was used for
output above).
