Hope vs wish.

[tufguy]

I would like to know about the usage of "Hope" and "Wish" in past tense.

HOPE.

1) I hope he has done it.

2) I hoped he had done it.

3) I hope you understand. (But in present form we usually do not use will after "hope". Am I correct?)

4) I hoped I didn't hit him while sliding. (Can we use "wouldn't" instead of didn't?)

WISH.

1) I wish I will get what I want.

2) I was wishing that he had completed the work.

3) I wished that he would not come.

I am confused about the usage of these two. Could you please set me straight on this?

4) I hoped I didn't hit him while sliding. (Can we use "wouldn't" instead of didn't?)

4. "I hoped I hadn't hit him." Past
"I hope I haven't hit him." Present.

No you can't use "wouldn't".

4. "I hoped I hadn't hit him." Past
"I hope I haven't hit him." Present.

No you can't use "wouldn't".

How about "Wish"?

Can "Would" be used with "Wish". Am I correct? Like "I wished that he would bring something to eat".

Not without changing the meaning. I hoped I wouldn't hit him means I hoped I wasn't going to hit him.
