I was hoping that we'd have a default hash setting available in CI, and this delivers!
However, this place changes the mode along with a bunch of other "optional" GIT_TEST_* variables, so the sha256 mode is not being tested on its own.
I think that the SHA-256 support is a big enough task that perhaps it should be part of the "matrix" in the jobs list inside .github/workflows/main.yml. Of course, I don't understand that system enough to contribute my own patch. For that reason, this patch is an excellent first step!
Let's keep my thoughts on creating new parallel builds for SHA-256 mode as a future enhancement.
