Review comment:
If you add `--tag` to this command, the file format is a bit more
self-descriptive. The `--tag` option uses BSD-style checksum, rather than GNU
coreutils style, which includes the algorithm name in the file contents
explicitly. It also avoids the confusing two space/space-star (text vs. binary
comparisons) delimiter of GNU style by always doing binary comparisons.
```suggestion
shasum -a 512 --tag "${i}" > "${i}.sha512"
```
