In Fossil version 2.0 ([/timeline?c=version-2.0|2017-03-03]),
the internal SHA1 implementation was changed from a generic
FIPS PUB 180-4 SHA1 implementation to a "Hardened SHA1"
[[https://github.com/cr-marcstevens/sha1collisiondetection|1]]
[[https://marc-stevens.nl/research/papers/C13-S.pdf|2]].
The Hardened SHA1 implement automatically detects when the artifact
being hashed is specifically designed to exploit the known weaknesses
in the SHA1 algorithm, and when it detects such an attack it changes
the hash algorithm (by increasing the number of rounds in the compression
function) to make the algorithm secure again. If the attack detection
gets a false possible, that means that Hardened SHA1 will get a different
answer than the standard FIPS PUB 180-4 SHA1, but the creators of
Hardened SHA1 (see the second paper
