Maybe you misunderstood $Id$? The value you get there is the blob's SHA1,
not the commit's. That is, it does not change on every commit, but only
when the file changes.

You are right that the value itself is something that is dictated by git's
database model, but the change logically happens when the editor modifies
the file.

(My contribution to this thread should be regarded as food for thought.
Personally, I don't mind whether or not and when $Id$ is updated.)
