It seems we currently use "git show ${hash}" in our script. Instead of
doing two commands like I naively suggested above, what about the
following?

git format-patch --stdout ${hash}^

This is better because in addition to the file names, it would give the
estimates of how many lines were added/removed, which is useful
information for catching mistakes like Kornel caught here:
