The earlier parts of the series to trim unused code and refactor look to me that they are good changes regardless of whether we introduce a different hash algorithm, and/or we use an implementation of that different hash algorithm written in Rust. IOW, even if neither of these two happens, I would think that the earlier parts are independently good pieces. Thanks for starting this effort. And thanks Elijah for helping. And in case nobody has said this yet, welcome to the Git development community.
