| THIS OPTION IS EXPERIMENTAL! SHA-256 support is experimental and still | |
| in an early stage. A SHA-256 repository will in general not be able to | |
| share work with "regular" SHA-1 repositories. It should be assumed | |
| that, e.g., Git internal file formats in relation to SHA-256 | |
| repositories may change in backwards-incompatible ways. Only use | |
| `--object-format=sha256` for testing purposes. |
