The function returned NULL when no object that matches the name
was found, but that made the callers more complicated, as nobody
used that NULL return as an indication that no object with such
a name exists. They (at least the careful ones) instead took
the full 40-hexdigit and used in such a case, and the careless
ones segfaulted.
With this "git rev-parse --short 5555555555555555555555555555555555555555"
would stop segfaulting.
