That looks correct to me:
$ diff -u <(GIT_DIR=WebKit/.git git cat-file -p
df242ce698c19b591e975d88c29f7411b2f2963d) <(GIT_DIR=GitHubWebKit/.git

[Mac] WebProcess should empty cache on a background thread/block.

You can see above that the tree and commit message are identical
between the two repositories. But the author and committer are
different, which causes the commit hash to be different (and since
this is true for older commits as well, the parent hash is different
too).
