Nice.

So in this case we have file header (4-byte signature, 1-byte version
number, 1-byte oid/hash version, 1-byte number of chunks, 1-byte
reserved: 4+1+1+1+1 = 8 bytes), chunk lookup: 3 required chunks plus
terminating label = 4 entries, constant-size fanout chunks, and
checksum.  Two remaining required chunks (OID Lookup and Commit Data)
can have length of 0.


One issue: in the future when Git moves to NewHash, it could encounter
then both commit-graph files using SHA-1 and using NewHash.  What about
GRPH_OID_LEN then: for one of those it would be incorrect.  Unless it is
about minimal length of checksum, that is we assume that NewHash would
be longer than SHA-1, but ten why name it GRAPH_OID_LEN?

This may be going too much in the future; there is no need to borrow
trouble now, where we have only SHA-1 supported as OID.  Still...
