It is unclear from where it is "acquire"-ing, nor what "restamp" means.

Here are my attempts to come up with better wording:

   "ignore author and timestamp of the original commit (used with -C/-c/--amend)"
   "the commit is authored by me now (used with -C/-c/--amend)"

Two new suggestions:

"reset authorship and timestamp to you (-C-c/--amend)"
        # On this case "you" can be changed to "commiter" but the text
is going to be bigger
        # and wrap.

"make me new author with new timestamp (-C-c/--amend)"

I am just waiting for your answers to this e-mail and to the previous
one so I can send you another patch.
