Setting git committer equal to commit author

suggest change

This command, given a commit range commit1..commit2, rewrites history so that git commit author becomes also git committer:

git filter-branch -f --commit-filter \
   'export GIT_COMMITTER_NAME=\"$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME\";
    export GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL=\"$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL\";
    export GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=\"$GIT_AUTHOR_DATE\";
    git commit-tree $@' \
    -- commit1..commit2

Found a mistake? Have a question or improvement idea? Let me know.
