First we let us show, which hash algorithms (message digests) are supported by our gpg2 version:
 $ gpg2 --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.18
libgcrypt 1.7.6-beta

Supported algorithms:
Pubkey: RSA, ELG, DSA, ECDH, ECDSA, EDDSA
Cipher: IDEA, 3DES, CAST5, BLOWFISH, AES, AES192, AES256, TWOFISH,
        CAMELLIA128, CAMELLIA192, CAMELLIA256
Hash: SHA1, RIPEMD160, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, SHA224
Compression: Uncompressed, ZIP, ZLIB, BZIP2
  My implementation in use support the hash algorithms SHA1, RIPEMD160, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, SHA224. So we can use this algorithms to create a hash for a given file:
