How about s/, this/. This/ to break it up a little? Also, you write "+2"
and "-2" but then "N". Unify it?

Also, I'd suggest s/SHA-1/object ID/ to be future-proof.

Good. You then add this paragraph to lots of other places...

Trailing period? Same below.

I've cut out a few instances of more-or-less repeated code. Any
possibility of extracting this into a helper? Maybe after you've done
the preparatory work of unifying these sites. Or as part of it, i.e.,
"let's switch this spot to use the helper; that makes it stricter in
this-and-that sense".

These can't all be entirely unified, I guess, but maybe "mostly"?
