But depending on the process, the initial commit id may or may not be
the final one. Think for example about rebases that happen every now
and then, even in custodian trees. And a commit ID in "some tree"
is worth nothing if you cannot guarantee that this tree is publicly
accessable guaranteed to exist forever.

Me too. But it has to make sense.

Best regards,
