any real-world SHA-256 repo users out there?

Hey all, just wondering if it's something I should prioritize adding support for in some git-using project I hack on...

Of course, I'm not dropping SHA-1 support. So I'm wondering if I should wait for (or hack on :P) git to handle both SHA-256 and SHA-1 in one process; or if it's something I'd be better off managing via multiple (git cat-file --batch) processes. No OIDs are abbreviated, so it's just 20/40 vs 32/64.

I actually started an entirely new project in May 2021 using SHA-256 and the only problem I've encountered (now fixed) was with HTTP(S) clones. I still haven't publicized that new project, yet (I keep getting brain farts and side-tracked with other stuff...)
