Hi all,

I am trying to understand how git's index-pack works, particularly how
it calculates the packfile checksum and idxfile checksum. I traced
back the packfile checksum in the source to the value char *sha1 that
is utilized in write_idx_file() in pack_file.c:45. However, I cannot
determine where this value is set.

My printf() debugging has it set at pack-write.c:171 (right before the
hashwrite call) but it does not seem to be utilized prior to that
point. Please assist.

Thanks!
