Subject: [PATCH] messages: avoid SHA-1 in end-user facing messages
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2020 18:07:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <xmqqy2miyr0f.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com> (raw)

There are still a handful mentions of SHA-1 when we meant the
(hexadecimal) object names in end-user facing messages.  Rewrite
them.

I was hoping that this can mostly be s/SHA-1/object name/, but
a few messages needed rephrasing to keep the result readable.
