Take a look at gitattributes(5), namely 'filter' attribute.

Although instead of implementing it "by hand", perhaps it would be
enough to use 'ident' and/or 'export-subs' attribute.

P.S. Because of the way git updates files, and git thinks about files
it is I think universally regarded to be bad idea to put in a file
any Id that depend on commit data.
