Our message to pull commits:

is a bit excessive. We almost certainly don't need the full 40 characters of the SHA-1. The first 12 is fine and is consistent with the rest of Mercurial's UI.

Ideally, I think this message should be part of the MozReview web UI. If someone wants to morph this bug, go for it. Otherwise, I'm inclined to keep the scope tight and easy.
Given http://www.jandemooij.nl/blog/2015/05/05/using-rust-to-generate-mercurial-short-hash-collisions/, how about WONTFIX. Let's fix this with UI changes instead. (Yes, I'm that paranoid about SHA-1.)
