Might be a nice idea.

But don't commit SHA1's, e.g., depend on times, authors, etc., that we can't count on being the same? So you'd have to be clever to deal with stuff like

	git cat-file commit a344bd52

Also, note that I didn't even attempt to keep a consistent scenario throughout the first tutorial.
