Nicely described.

While the above explains what is wrong in the current code, it does
not tell if that was buggy from the beginning or we unintentionally
broke it.  It seems that this logic came from e9c1b0e3 (revision:
improve commit_rewrite_person(), 2022-07-19) when a much simpler
version of commit_rewrite_person() that worked on one "person
header" at a time (as there are only two, author and committer,
anyway) was rewritten to use this function, and it was broken during
the rewrite?

Perhaps just a  matter of taste, but

	sed -n -e "/^author /s/>.*/>/p" -e "/^committer /s/>.*/>/p"

may be easier to read and more portable (as some implementation of
sed is picky about semicolon concatenated multiple commands).
