I couldn't find anything relating to 'digest', 'hash', 'md5' or 'sha1' at http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/ so I'd say text/plain. Indeed some places encode these hashes as base64 and some as hex, so it seems pretty lax.

pom = text/xml  (its just an XML file... I suppose you could use
application/pom if you really wanted, but that seems excessive to me)

xml = text/xml   (this is widely used and seems "standard")

md5 & sha1 = not so sure, but I imagine someone at IETF or W3C has
come up with some proposal to specify these Content-Types, so if you
Google and find it, report back.

Relative to content-type, Is their convention for the file in the
repository?

File       Suggested
Extension  Content-type
--------- ----------------------------------
*.jar      application/java-archive
*.pom      ?
*.xml      ?
*.md5      ?
*.sha1     ?

Granted the content type is set in the web server, documenting this will
be helpful to anyone setting up an maven repository.  I assume this is
also true for maven-proxy
