Totally off-topic answer ;-):
If the commit is already know to you because it is in a central repo like:
http://code.wireshark.org/git/?p=wireshark;a=commit;h=4111941a755fa68df67a88efe57c9db2fde9adf5
of it is in your repo which you shared with Jakub you can be sure of
its content.
In case of svn, you can refer to a revision number, but if Jakub used
an internal svn repo with similar
amount of commits you could not tell r500210's content.
Since the hash is generated from the commit and its history
practically there can't be two commits with the
same hash id but with different content or history.

BTW I don't know how Jakub generated the patch, it is not a standard git patch.

Cheers,
Balint
