This is the id of the blob object corresponding to the _file_ being
patched (index <from>..<to> <mode>). That's why you don't see it in git
log: git log shows you ids for commit objects (which point to trees,
which in turn points to blob).
See Johannes' answer for how you can get some possible commits.
