Doesn't even need to be in filenames, but the content of files aswell.

Doesn't even need to be in filenames, but the content of files aswell.
- dbaupp 14y agoI believe bigiain is referring to the fact that git objects are stored by their SHA-1 digest (so a hash-collision will cause a collision in these filenames) not the filenames of the contents. (The objects are stored under the .git/objects directory, in the format xx/y...y, where the directory xx is the first two digits of the digest, and the 38 y's are the rest of the digest.)
