Is it necessary to specify the commit rev?

Speaking as a git user, it's much more helpful to provide the commitID
than to just provide committer+date as was done for other items in
this file.  It allows "git tag --contains da15cfdae" to find out what
release it was merged in, for example.

Is there any downside to having the commit hash in the comment?
