As stated in the docs, show-index should use SHA1 as the default hash algorithm when run outsize of a repository. However, 'the_hash_algo' is currently left uninitialized if we are not in a repository and no explicit hash function is specified, causing a crash. Fix it by falling back to SHA1 when it is found uninitialized. Also add test that verifies this behaviour.
