Sep 3, 2021 at 15:08 comment added Dylan Wilson It sounds like you're interested in crossed modules more generally. In that case, why not look at the classifying space (i.e. the equivalent data of the 2-type)? Then your condition of 'quasi-isomorphism' gives a weak equivalence of 2-types (indeed: the corresponding 2-type is the fiber of a map of 1-types, and your condition is exactly that you have a commuting square and that the induced map on the fiber is an equivalence on pi_1 and pi_2). Now any invariant of the 2-type is a 'quasi-isomorphism invariant'. For example, the cohomology of that classifying space.

I removed the last edit in order to put it into my answer

I have added my definitions of cohomology and hypercohomology for a a group of order2 and a complex of length 2.

Sep 1, 2021 at 16:38 comment added Denis Nardin What's your definition of group hypercohomology? The definition I usually use makes this true by definition...
Sep 1, 2021 at 15:10 comment added Mikhail Borovoi @AndyPutman: This book also contains sign rules for the differentials in double complexes obtained as ${\rm Hom}(C,C')$ and $C\otimes C'$, where $C$ and $C'$ are given complexes. Many thanks again!
Sep 1, 2021 at 15:06 comment added Mikhail Borovoi @AndyPutman: Many thanks! The necessary assertion is stated in Brown's book (for group homology rather than cohomology). This is Proposition VII.5.2: Weak equivalence of chain $G$-complexes induces isomorphism on homology.

Sep 1, 2021 at 14:31 comment added Andy Putman I don’t think this is stated there, but Brown’s book on group cohomology defines cohomology with coefficients in a chain complex and constructs a natural spectral sequence converging to it. Your quasi-isomorphism induces an isomorphism between these spectral sequences. There might be a more explicit reference, but that might do if you can’t find one.
