It's a pseudo email address that can be used as the author email in commits to have them associated with a GitHub account without revealing the account owner's actual email address. "Pseudo" means it's not an actual address that can receive mail, it just looks like one. See also the description in the GitHub documentation, it also says what to do if you want to use this feature. |
