To future-proof ourselves against a change in the hash, let's use the more generic "hash mismatch" to refer to integrity problems. Note that we do advertise this exact string in git-fsck(1). However, the message itself is marked for translation, meaning we do not expect it to be machine-readable.
While we're touching that documentation, let's also update it for grammar and clarity. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <[email protected]> --- I'm actually a little nervous that we _shouldn't_ have marked the messages that fsck produces for translation (and nor should we change them here, but then we're stuck with the word "sha1" forever). I actually think fsck ought to have a machine-readable output format, but of course that does not help any existing scripts.
