The documentation for --annotate-stdin and --name-only refers to SHA-1, although name-rev handles object IDs according to the active hash algorithm. Update the descriptions to refer to object IDs instead.

This looks much better. I didn't see any other instances of "SHA-1" in the documentation or "40", so this looks complete. -- brian m. carlson (they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
