The githooks(5) documentation states in several places that the hook will receive a SHA-1 or hashes of 40 characters length. Given that we're transitioning to a world where both SHA-1 and SHA-256 are supported, this is inaccurate. Fix the issue by replacing mentions of SHA-1 with "object name" and not explicitly mentioning the hash size.
