That looks sensible. We do not have to adjust the code to update
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS and friends in this patch because the current way
to force rebuilding when SHA1_HEADER changes is by letting
GIT-CFLAGS file notice the change, and the new "hash.h" itself will
let the $(MAKE) notice if a different hash implementation is chosen
for the build.
