The problem of a SH1 collision happening by coincidence is vanishingly low and theoretical.

Nothing else matters.

Git hashes are not supposed to be a security mechanism. If your basis for trusting that you have the right checkout is the git hash, in a situation where you have legitimate concern about untrusted parties manipulating remote repositories, then you're simply wrong.
