Oh, well, that's cute. It's a configuration option that doesn't touch any code at all... Not that I really cared about the check, I just thought it was a nice paranoid thing to activate and I like a certain amount of paranoia in my SCMs. But maybe the description should be removed from the Makefile then? Or better yet, collision checking could be put back in?

And is there an easier way to find these things than "git rev-list HEAD | git diff-tree -r -s --stdin -SCOLLISION | xargs git show"? I cobbled that together from poking around inside gitk (which mostly works in OS X, but has some issues that make me prefer the command line).
