Wouldn't this trip over the randomness included in all encryption [to
avoid generating the same cyphertext for two separate identical
messages, which gives away some information], which would let git
think the file has been changed as soon as its stat info has changed
(or is just racy)?
Not to mention that this makes most source-oriented features such as
diff, blame, merge, etc., rather useless.
