Would MD5 also not satisfy all the availablity and standardization problems you mentioned just as well as SHA-x ? and also meet other non security requirements of git just as well ?
So why SHA-1 over MD5 which probably is move available and order of magnitude faster ? what problems MD5 has outside of its security that SHA-1 does not ?
- pvg 10y agoSo why SHA-1 over MD5 which probably is more available and order of magnitude faster? This actually ends up not being true. Try openssl speed md5 openssl speed sha1 On a somewhat recent Intel CPU.
