I actually do appreciate the topic to be in 'seen', as these
integration exercises tend to serve as an early warning for
impending messy conflicts I'll need to be worried about.

I do worry about the memory requirement bloat of the object_id
structure, as we do need to keep one instance per object in-core,
but the squashable fix for the reftable topic given by Patrick
to replace use of hashcpy() with oidread() is still a good idea even
if we are going to use a different mechanism to keep track of which
object_id instance uses what hash algorithm, so again I am happy to
have seen your bc/hash-transition-interop-part-1 topic and had an
early chance to make it collide with others ;-)

Thanks.
