I ended up trying to filter-branch my repository, see if I could come up with a version stripped of all our private code, suitable for making public. Disappointingly, filter-branch magically fixes all the commits, even when simply run as "git filter-branch HEAD".

However, looking at the rewritten repository vs the original, they share a lot of commits, then diverge halfway through their history. I can't see anything notable about the commit where they diverge, with the exception that the rewritten commit has a newline after the subject and the original doesn't. Neither has a commit message body.
