Translate a simple command from bash to batch. Multiple line string

Question

This command works on linux

I can't get it to work on windows. There is an obvious problem with the string over multiple lines. I have already tried with appending ^ to each line. Didn't seem to work

I have also already looked at Splitting Doublequoted Line Into Multiple Lines in Windows Batch

#!/bin/sh

git filter-branch --env-filter '

an="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
am="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
cn="$GIT_COMMITTER_NAME"
cm="$GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL"

if [ "$GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL" = "your@email.to.match" ]
then
    cn="Your New Committer Name"
    cm="Your New Committer Email"
fi
if [ "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL" = "your@email.to.match" ]
then
    an="Your New Author Name"
    am="Your New Author Email"
fi

export GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="$an"
export GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="$am"
export GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$cn"
export GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$cm"
'

Otherwise -- I would appreciate another way of changing author/committer on github

Any help is appreciated -- Thank you!

Have the script from this link https://help.github.com/articles/changing-author-info — tordenhunden, Jul 31 '14 at 12:07
If you have solved your issue yourself, please post and self-accept your answer *or*, in the worst case, delete the question. — Sylvain Leroux, Jul 31 '14 at 14:28
I couldn't at that time. I can now. Thanks for the reminder. — tordenhunden, Aug 27 '14 at 15:32
