One answer could be to remove the commit-details comment block from
that item, thereby making the added URL go away too. However, that
will look a bit odd when the neighboring items all have credits and
URLs.

I think our past practice has been to list any one item either in
Migration or the following sections, not in both places. This item
seems to adhere to that too: I don't see that commit hash anywhere
else. So I'm not clear why you're finding this duplicative?
