I think it can be part of this series, but doesn't have to be. As I
understand it, the current code is just handing the name to the `git
verify-tag` process, so if we continue to do so, that would be OK.

Yes, though I'd generally advise against a function taking either a name or
a sha1, and ignoring the other option. That often leads to confusing
interfaces for the callers. Instead, perhaps just take the sha1, and let
the caller do the get_sha1() themselves. Or possibly provide two
functions, one of which is a convenience to translate the name to sha1
and then call the other.
