    You want the -s option to git ls-files. This gives you the mode and sha1 hash of the file in the index.

    git ls-files -s myfile.java 

    Note that you do not want git hash-object as this gives you the sha1 id of the file in the working tree as it currently is, not of the file that you’ve added to the index. These will be different once you make changes to the working tree copy after the git add.
