That "leaf-first" approach sounds very sensible.
In the medium term, I wonder if the changes can progress faster and
in a less error prone way if you first used GIT_SHA1_RAWSZ in places
that cannot be immediately converted to the struct yet. That way,
we will be easily tell by "git grep GIT_SHA1_RAWSZ" how many more
places need treatment. I do not know if that is all that useful
offhand, though. Those places need to be touched in the second pass
to use the struct again, after the "s/\[20\]/[GIT_SHA1_RAWSZ]/"
first pass.
