Sounds like it would be possible, but we need to make sure we aren't guessing
here. I strongly feel that contribulyzer output should be as accurate as possible.

Also, regardless of whether it's technically possible, should be do this? I
mean, part of reason for the contribulyzer is to give us an idea of who
potential committers are. People which make regular commits to their own area
certainly fall underneath that consideration, so ignoring those commits on their
contribulyzer "score" may not be very wise. Just a thought.
