The intent of this is to allow downloading the same youtube video to
multiple devices, since youtube might present different encodings of the
video at different times.
You can use `git-annex migrate --backend=SHA256` to convert to a backend
that does get hash checked.
If you set the annex.securehashesonly config to true, `git-annex fsck`
will complain about any files that are not hashed (as well as files using
insecure hashes).
Setting annex.securehashesonly will also prevent `git-annex addurl` from
adding youtube videos, eg:
git-annex addurl 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA3yPe5lG4c'
addurl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA3yPe5lG4c
(using yt-dlp)
annex.securehashesonly blocked transfer of URL key
failed
Perhaps it would be better for addurl, with that configuration, to
not generate an URL key, but hash it with the default backend.
