I still can open this:
  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=39b3448

or when in git repository, use:
  $ git show 39b3448   # to show the commit, or
  $ git rev-parse 39b3448   # to find full commit id to use as a query

Yeah, but there is a possibility to have a hash collision anyway ...
(ie, the repetition of the hash, IIRC)

Hope this helps :-)
Best Regards,
