Re: [RFE] Teach hash-object to be able to choose signature types

trivial. I'm definitely not opposed if someone else is interested in
picking it up or writing it; I don't believe my outstanding patches
(which will likely show up on the list this weekend now that 2.23 is
out) would affect it in any way.

I'll try to push up the work that I'm doing into my "transition-interop"
branch; it contains the work for literal hashing and a more significant
refactor, which folks are free to ignore.

Thanks for pushing the SHA-256 transition forward.

The problem is somewhat ameliorated by the fact that for most projects,
there will be a mapping between SHA-1 and SHA-256, so it'll be possible
to look up between the two, but it can still be confusing if the "wrong"
one appears in commit messages, say.
