We’ve fully mitigated it. We have a very small number of people who can commit 
changes. One of them would have to commit two documents that have the same 
SHA1. That SHA1 is used as the unique key of the document on the assumption 
that no two documents would ever have the same unique key. That would confuse 
the software.

Not going to happen.
