Denial of service via hash algorithm collision

A variety of programming languages suffer from a DoS via hash algorithm collision. If the implementation of the hash calculation is expensive, then creating POST request with many collisions can cause DoS. POST request has no limit then 8GB.

• git mergetool - invoking tool for merging
• git stash - hiding temporary files changes e.g. for rebasing
• git stash pop - uncover changes hidden by stash command
