Now that we have Git supporting SHA-256, we'd like to make sure that we
don't regress that state.  Unfortunately, it's easy to do so, so to
help, let's run one of our CI jobs with SHA-256 as the default hash.
This will help us detect any problems that may occur.

I was hoping that we'd have a default hash setting available
in CI, and this delivers!

However, this place changes the mode along with a bunch of
other "optional" GIT_TEST_* variables, so the sha256 mode is
not being tested on its own.

I think that the SHA-256 support is a big enough task that
perhaps it should be part of the "matrix" in the jobs list
inside .github/workflows/main.yml. Of course, I don't
understand that system enough to contribute my own patch.
For that reason, this patch is an excellent first step!

Let's keep my thoughts on creating new parallel builds for
SHA-256 mode as a future enhancement.

Thanks,
