This has nothing to do with this series, but I do notice a number of
other uses of test_oid_to_path that are doing this exact thing. In fact,
many of them don't use "git rev-parse --git-path", which would be
better.
I wonder if it's worth a clean-up on top to consolidate all of those
"combine the loose object path of the object with xyz OID and the
$GIT_DIR/objects directory".
In either case -- and I think I'm pretty clearly being pedantic at this
point -- do you suppose it's worthwhile to rename sha1_file to something
that doesn't have sha1 in it?
Thanks,
