Commit IDs are a hash of that commit and all previous commits. If you do that it changes every single commit hash since the broken commit. That then breaks any tracking of commit IDs, eg Jira, commit logs, people's own notes etc. It also breaks anyone else's checkouts, and every other checkout / fork off FreeSWITCH in existence. The commit in question is from 2014, so you'd be affecting 3 years of commits. It's just not worth the pain it would cause just so you can fork onto github.

Hello Mike If i will create new fork/branch and will do rebase and fix multiple 'author' commits, then can you accept rebased branch as master?

That requires rewriting commit history all the way back to there. We won’t be doing that. You can make forks it our stash.
