Replacing memcpy with hashcpy is more directly and elegant.

Leave ppc/sha1.c alone, as it is an isolated component. Pull cache.h(actually ../cache.h) in just for one memcpy there is not proper.

PATCH v3 delete the one-space indentation on each line of commit message
as is suggested by Eric Sunshine.
 Thanks to Eric Sunshine.
PATCH v2 leave ppc/sha1.c alone.
The general rule is if cache.h or git-compat-util.h is included,
it is the first #include, and system includes will be always in
git-compat-tuil.h.
       				via Duy Nguyen
The change in PATCH v1 is not proper because I placed cache.h
in the end.
And adding it to the head is not a good way to achieve the goal,
as is said above "---".
 Thanks to Duy Nguyen.
Find the potential places with memcpy by the bash command:
 $ find . | xargs grep "memcpy.*\(.*20.*\)"

ppc/sha1.c doesn't include cache.h and it cannot use hashcpy(). So just leave memcpy(in ppc/sha1.c) alone.
