There's a call in describe_commit() to lookup_commit_reference(), but we don't check the return value. If it returns NULL, we'll segfault as we immediately dereference the result. In practice this can never happen, since all callers pass an oid which came from a "struct commit" already. So we can make this more obvious by just taking that commit struct in the first place.
