I think this "rightly" needs a clarification (otherwise Jakub
wouldn't have said the above).
It wasn't that identifying the commit that contained the version
of the file was not needed. It is just there already is a way
to do so, and "to create git command" turns out to be
unnecessary. Something like:
$ hash=`git hash-object --stdin <$file_in_question`
$ git log -z --raw -r --abbrev=40 |
grep -z '^:[0-7][0-7]* [0-7][0-7]* [0-9a-f][0-9a-f]* '"$hash"'
