I agree that it makes sense to have symbolic constants defined in
this file.  These are values that fit in the ".format_id" member of
"struct git_hash_algo", and it is preferrable to make sure that the
names align (if I were designing in void, I would have called the
member "algo_id" and made the constants GIT_(SHA1|SHA256)_ALGO_ID).

Brian?  What's your preference ("I am fine to store HASH_ID in the
'.format_id' member" is perfectly an acceptable answer).

Thanks.
