How about ${REV}^0 into
nREV=$(git rev-parse "${REV}")^0
and use it where you need an object name that needs to be parsed by
get_sha1(), e.g.
git checkout -q "$nREV^0"
I would suggest a helper function in git-sh-setup, something like:
peel_committish () {
case "$1" in
:/*)
peeltmp=$(git rev-parse --verify "$1") &&
git rev-parse --verify "$peeltmp^0"
;;
*)
git rev-parse --verify "$1^0"
;;
esac
}
