Spelled missingCommitsCheck everywhere else.

If set to warn, print (comma). Here and below

I'd split the line in two:

	git stripspace --strip-comments <"$1" |
	while read -r command sha1 rest

You're using $1 and $2 only to redirect input and output. I would find
it more elegant to write todo_list_to_sha_list as a filter, and do the
redirection in the call site (to keep the option of using
todo_list_to_sha_list in a pipe).

You're not really checking commits, but rather the todo-list.

Long line. Please, wrap the message to <80 columns.
