Research direction
The request concerns rewriting the author email in the repository history for commits from merged contribution #56. First inspect the affected commits with git log --author="Serghei Pogor" --format=%ae and assess the impact of rewriting shared history. Done means the requested email is corrected throughout the relevant history; this requires maintainer agreement because it involves a force-push.

Description
Hi, and thanks for merging my contribution (#56).
By mistake those commits were made with my former employer's email address instead of my personal one. I'd be grateful if you could replace it in the history, if you're open to it. One command with git-filter-repo does it:
git filter-repo --mailmap <(echo "Serghei Pogor <[email protected]> <OLD_EMAIL>")
git push --force --all && git push --force --tags
OLD_EMAIL is the address shown by git log --author="Serghei Pogor" --format=%ae. I'm leaving it out here so it isn't repeated in public.
I understand a force-push is disruptive for an active list, so no worries at all if you'd rather not. Thank you!
