This topic was discussed on the mailing list in the abstract.  Here is a
concrete example.

This cast is undefined, because you can't make the assumption that
cache_entry::sha1 has the same alignment and padding as (struct object_id).

I think the transition will be more tractable if you rewrite the data
structures *first*; in this case changing cache_entry::sha1 to be
(struct object_id) *before* rewriting code that works with it.
