Well, it was a format we already know how to produce and consume and
delivers a good checksum for each file.  The other thing that's easily
used is hashdeep (formerly known as md5deep).  I have a private version
that can do SHA512 checksums as well, but upstream wants to solve that
problem in a different way (for over a year now).  I guess I could just
package that for Cygwin or we use an SHA256 checksum instead.  Of course
sha512sum also works, just needs to be wrapped into a find…|xargs
invocation.

I don't think I'm going to provide patches for something in Python…
