Implemented in patch-391 (I think). Should be in ArX-2.0.

Use a SHA256 hash of the username, time, a sequence number, and
complete file name. We could also put in a random number for good
measure.

Or just hash the file name relative to the tree root and it's
contents. That could be re-used for the checksums. But we have to
add in a time, because we could still get duplicates. So it would be

<hash of (name relative to tree root + permissions + contents)>_<date-time>
