Re: [PATCH 3/5] protocol-capabilities.txt: clarify "allow-x-sha1-in-want" re SHA-256

I think we should have either a new sha256 capability or a more
generic hash-algo capability whose value can be set to sha256.
Neither the connection initiators or the acceptors should talk
in sha256 until both ends agreed to do so.

I think we should, and I think we do. I haven't dug into the details,
but "object-format" looks like it's just that.

Ah, Yes, my thinko.

Maybe instead of SHA-1 and SHA-256, this should talk about "whatever has
been negotiated through 'object-format', or SHA-1", similar to brian's
suggestion elsewhere.

Yup, that would be wonderful.

Thanks.
