A possible solution is to translate every email address with the "&#xy;" HTML 
entity. 
I already do so in the commiter field. But I never thought about the revision

This was a topic already discussed with the git folks: see  
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/bazaar-ng/2006q4/018685.html. 
I agree that a SHA1 sum is better and I posted a patch. But it nedded a bit of 
work.
