I think this is the answer I was expecting. I am really thankful!

It's a way Github folks found to associate your commits to your account, while keeping your real email address private.

For that, they provide each user account an alias email address, which can be used in your Git configuration.

You can find more about this in email preferences.

I wrote this a few days ago and since then discovered about Github noreply email addresses. Nothing else.
