Tools like git-filter-repo[1] support rewriting commit hashes in commit messages. git-filter-repo actually does it by default; see `--preserve-commit-hashes` in the manual[2].

Sure, but that's not going to rewrite Slack messages, emails, GitHub links, docs

I need git-filter-repo to rewrite entire documentation and also resurrect and rehire earlier employees to repeat their GPG signatures.
