It seems it's actually from "First Last" to "Last, First".... but this
is not what the comment says... it should be converting the other way
around.

You are considering only First and Last without spaces, which isn't
globally true.

	$ echo "De Marchi, Lucas" | sed -e 's/\([^ ]*\), \(.*\)/\2 \1/')
	De Lucas Marchi

not what we want. This yields better results since we don't have to
deal with the ambiguous space like in the other way around:

	author_from_outlook=$(git show -s $sha1 --format="format:%an" | sed -e 's/\(.*\), \(.*\)/\2 \1/')
