What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)
* Create empty repo using `git init`
* Make few commits, at least two
* execute `git log --format=fuller`
* Notice the log, with "Author", "AuthorDate", "Commit", "CommitDate"
* Note, "Commit"
* execute `git rebase --committer-date-is-author-date HEAD~1`
* execute `git log --format=fuller`
* Note, email from "Commit" is empty <>

Thanks for a clear report. I was able to easily reproduce the problem.
There are actually two related bugs here, and they're both regressions
in v2.29.0.

   [1/3]: t3436: check --committer-date-is-author-date result more carefully
   [2/3]: am: fix broken email with --committer-date-is-author-date
   [3/3]: rebase: fix broken email with --committer-date-is-author-date

Thanks for taking quick care of this.  It counts as an embarrasing
brown-paper-bag bug; it is a bit surprising that nobody noticed it
while the original change was discussed.

It is indeed embarrassing. That change only appeared in the last round of patches and unfortunately I think most people had stopped looking them it by then as their comments had been addressed in previous rounds.

I wonder if we even needed to do the original change to begin with
(stopping to export means not giving information to the hooks), but
that is a separate matter.

I think the main motivation was to stop polluting the environment of exec commands

Best Wishes

Will take a look and queue.  Thanks.
