This script is derived from Pasky's cg-admin-rewritehist.
In fact, it _is_ the same script, minimally adapted to work without cogito.
It _should_ be able to perform the same tasks, even if only relying on
core-git programs.
All the work is Pasky's, just the adaption is mine.

I will not have time to work on this for at least 24 hours. So, if
people want to go wild with enhancing the test case (and fixing the
script), go wild!
IMHO this should go into core-git, as one of the many, many, many
enhancements that cogito brought to us.
So really, this is a way of thanks to Pasky, rather than just
saying good-bye to cogito.
Thanks, Pasky.

+# Rewrite revision history
+# Copyright (c) Petr Baudis, 2006
+# Minimal changes to "port" it to core-git (c) Johannes Schindelin, 2007
+#
+# Lets you rewrite GIT revision history by creating a new branch from
+# your current branch by applying custom filters on each revision.
+# Those filters can modify each tree (e.g. removing a file or running
+# a perl rewrite on all files) or information about each commit.
+# Otherwise, all information (including original commit times or merge
+# information) will be preserved.
+#
+# The command takes the new branch name as a mandatory argument and
+# the filters as optional arguments. If you specify no filters, the
+# commits will be recommitted without any changes, which would normally
+# have no effect and result with the new branch pointing to the same
+# branch as your current branch. (Nevertheless, this may be useful in
+# the future for compensating for some Git bugs or such, therefore
+# such a usage is permitted.)
+#
+# WARNING! The rewritten history will have different ids for all the
+# objects and will not converge with the original branch. You will not
+# be able to easily push and distribute the rewritten branch. Please do
+# not use this command if you do not know the full implications, and
+# avoid using it anyway - do not do what a simple single commit on top
+# of the current version would fix.
+#
+# Always verify that the rewritten version is correct before disposing
+# the original branch.
+#
+# Note that since this operation is extensively I/O expensive, it might
+# be a good idea to do it off-disk, e.g. on tmpfs. Reportedly the speedup
+# is very noticeable.
+#
+# OPTIONS
+# -------
+# -d TEMPDIR:: The path to the temporary tree used for rewriting
+# When applying a tree filter, the command needs to temporary
+# checkout the tree to some directory, which may consume
+# considerable space in case of large projects. By default it
+# does this in the '.git-rewrite/' directory but you can override
+# that choice by this parameter.
+#
+# -r STARTREV:: The commit id to start the rewrite at
+# Normally, the command will rewrite the entire history. If you
+# pass this argument, though, this will be the first commit it
+# will rewrite and keep the previous commits intact.
+#
+# -k KEEPREV:: A commit id until which _not_ to rewrite history
+# If you pass this argument, this commit and all of its
+# predecessors are kept intact.
+#
+# Filters
+# ~~~~~~~
+# The filters are applied in the order as listed below. The COMMAND
+# argument is always evaluated in shell using the 'eval' command.
+# The $GIT_COMMIT environment variable is permanently set to contain
+# the id of the commit being rewritten. The author/committer environment
+# variables are set before the first filter is run.
+#
+# A 'map' function is available that takes an "original sha1 id" argument
+# and outputs a "rewritten sha1 id" if the commit has been already
+# rewritten, fails otherwise; the 'map' function can return several
+# ids on separate lines if your commit filter emitted multiple commits
+# (see below).
+#
+# --env-filter COMMAND:: The filter for modifying environment
+# This is the filter for modifying the environment in which
+# the commit will be performed. Specifically, you might want
+# to rewrite the author/committer name/email/time environment
+# variables (see `git-commit` for details). Do not forget to
+# re-export the variables.
+#
+# --tree-filter COMMAND:: The filter for rewriting tree (and its contents)
+# This is the filter for rewriting the tree and its contents.
+# The COMMAND argument is evaluated in shell with the working
+# directory set to the root of the checked out tree. The new tree
+# is then used as-is (new files are auto-added, disappeared files
+# are auto-removed - .gitignore files nor any other ignore rules
+# HAVE NO EFFECT!).
+#
+# --index-filter COMMAND:: The filter for rewriting index
+# This is the filter for rewriting the Git's directory index.
+# It is similar to the tree filter but does not check out the
+# tree, which makes it much faster. However, you must use the
+# lowlevel Git index manipulation commands to do your work.
+#
+# --parent-filter COMMAND:: The filter for rewriting parents
+# This is the filter for rewriting the commit's parent list.
+# It will receive the parent string on stdin and shall output
+# the new parent string on stdout. The parent string is in
+# format accepted by `git-commit-tree`: empty for initial
+# commit, "-p parent" for a normal commit and "-p parent1
+# -p parent2 -p parent3 ..." for a merge commit.
+#
+# --msg-filter COMMAND:: The filter for rewriting commit message
+# This is the filter for rewriting the commit messages.
+# The COMMAND argument is evaluated in shell with the original
+# commit message on standard input; its standard output is
+# is used as the new commit message.
+#
+# --commit-filter COMMAND:: The filter for performing the commit
+# If this filter is passed, it will be called instead of the
+# `git-commit-tree` command, with those arguments:
+#
+# TREE_ID [-p PARENT_COMMIT_ID]...
+#
+# and the log message on stdin. The commit id is expected on
+# stdout. As a special extension, the commit filter may emit
+# multiple commit ids; in that case, all of them will be used
+# as parents instead of the original commit in further commits.
+#
+# --tag-name-filter COMMAND:: The filter for rewriting tag names.
+# If this filter is passed, it will be called for every tag ref
+# that points to a rewritten object (or to a tag object which
+# points to a rewritten object). The original tag name is passed
+# via standard input, and the new tag name is expected on standard
+# output.
+#
+# The original tags are not deleted, but can be overwritten;
+# use "--tag-name-filter=cat" to simply update the tags. In this
+# case, be very careful and make sure you have the old tags
+# backed up in case the conversion has run afoul.
+#
+# Note that there is currently no support for proper rewriting of
+# tag objects; in layman terms, if the tag has a message or signature
+# attached, the rewritten tag won't have it. Sorry. (It is by
+# definition impossible to preserve signatures at any rate, though.)
+#
+# EXAMPLE USAGE
+# -------------
+# Suppose you want to remove a file (containing confidential information
+# or copyright violation) from all commits:
+#
+# git-filter-branch --tree-filter 'rm filename' newbranch
+#
+# A significantly faster version:
+#
+# git-filter-branch --index-filter 'git-update-index --remove filename' newbranch
+#
+# Now, you will get the rewritten history saved in the branch 'newbranch'
+# (your current branch is left untouched).
+#
+# To "etch-graft" a commit to the revision history (set a commit to be
+# the parent of the current initial commit and propagate that):
+#
+# git-filter-branch --parent-filter sed\ 's/^$/-p graftcommitid/' newbranch
+#
+# (if the parent string is empty - therefore we are dealing with the
+# initial commit - add graftcommit as a parent). Note that this assumes
+# history with a single root (that is, no git-merge without common ancestors
+# happened). If this is not the case, use:
+#
+# git-filter-branch --parent-filter 'cat; [ "$GIT_COMMIT" = "COMMIT" ] && echo "-p GRAFTCOMMIT"' newbranch
+#
+# To remove commits authored by "Darl McBribe" from the history:
+#
+# git-filter-branch --commit-filter 'if [ "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME" = "Darl McBribe" ]; then shift; while [ -n "$1" ]; do shift; echo "$1"; shift; done; else git-commit-tree "$@"; fi' newbranch
+#
+# (the shift magic first throws away the tree id and then the -p
+# parameters). Note that this handles merges properly! In case Darl
+# committed a merge between P1 and P2, it will be propagated properly
+# and all children of the merge will become merge commits with P1,P2
+# as their parents instead of the merge commit.
+#
+# To restrict rewriting to only part of the history, use -r or -k or both.
+# Consider this history:
+#
+# D--E--F--G--H
+# / /
+# A--B-----C
+#
+# To rewrite only commits F,G,H, use:
+#
+# git-filter-branch -r F ...
+#
+# To rewrite commits E,F,G,H, use one of these:
+#
+# git-filter-branch -r E -k C ...
+# git-filter-branch -k D -k C ...
