I believe both hg and git currently use SHA-1 hashes.
Should the syntax used in the release file be expanded to indicate which
SCM the hash is from?
Thanks,

There are several instances of OpenJDK source being hosted in Git
repositories instead of Mercurial. AdoptOpenJDK is one and some
engineers use local conversions for their day to day work. Project
Skara aims to investigate Git as well. To better support this, the
build needs to be able to support Git as an alternative to Mercurial
when creating the identification hash in the release file. It would
also be convenient with a .gitignore file mirroring the .hgignore file.
This patch adds such support as well as a .gitignore file.
