the ratio of relevant new relevant to this problem information/new information is low.
If a low signal/noise ratio is still the purpose of information then the thread is less interesting than Linus mail:
- if we add size it will make forgery harder
- yes SHA1 should be replaced
What linus is missing is people rewriting history. This will not be a concern for git, but certainly will for any crypto currency relying on SHA1 in a close future. (Hint this transaction belonged to me)
