[PATCH v2 0/9] misc commit-graph and oid-array cleanups

[Jeff King <peff@peff.net>]

Here's a re-roll of my series to clean up commit-graph and oid-array.
The changes are all cosmetic: comments and commit messages (and most of
those just in the for-loop patch). I recommend just reading the
range-diff below, if you reviewed v1.

  [1/9]: oid-array.h: drop sha1 mention from header guard
  [2/9]: t0064: drop sha1 mention from filename
  [3/9]: t0064: make duplicate tests more robust
  [4/9]: cache.h: move hash/oid functions to hash.h
  [5/9]: oid-array: make sort function public
  [6/9]: oid-array: provide a for-loop iterator
  [7/9]: commit-graph: drop count_distinct_commits() function
  [8/9]: commit-graph: replace packed_oid_list with oid_array
  [9/9]: commit-graph: use size_t for array allocation and indexing
