{- The filename to use when resolving a conflicted merge of a file,
 - that points to a key.
 -
 - Something derived from the key needs to be included in the filename,
 - but rather than exposing the whole key to the user, a very weak hash
 - is used. There is a very real, although still unlikely, chance of
 - conflicts using this hash.
 -
 - In the event that there is a conflict with the filename generated
 - for some other key, that conflict will itself be handled by the
 - conflicted merge resolution code. That case is detected, and the full
 - key is used in the filename.
