The breakage in 1517 turns out to be a thinko on my part.  Outside a
repository, we do use SHA-1 with our "if the_hash_algo is not set
yet, default to SHA-1" in patch-id and hash-object but the way I
prepared the expected output was to use whatever GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_HASH
was in use.  A fix would be to go outside a repository and force the
hash with GIT_DEFAULT_HASH to sha1 when preparing the expected output.

I haven't looked at the breakage in 1007 yet, though.
