Allowing both hash algorithms is, from a security standpoint, equivalent to just using the less-secure hash algorithm.

All repos need to end up using SHA-2 exclusively by the end. All tools that speak only SHA-1 need to be made incompatible intentionally. If the SHA-1/SHA-2 hybrid approach could allow that to happen, then it would be useful. If not, then it would just be a waste of time.
