I've got a small project in git where I made a dumb error. All my commits have author/committer information like this:

Author: Darrin Thompson <darrint@dhcp-1-211.(none)>  2005-10-20 16:50:38
Committer: Darrin Thompson <darrint@dhcp-1-211.(none)>  2005-10-20
16:50:38
Tags: svn-5099

I'd like to replace the commits (yes, I know that means all of them) with new ones with corrected email addresses and also manage to migrate my tags. A push in the right direction would be appreciated.

Next I'd like to do the same with the kernel sources... :-)
