How does git disambiguate SHA1 hash collisions?
It does not. You can fully expect the universe to go down before that
happens.
Or you can compile git with COLLISION_CHECK

From Makefile:
# Define COLLISION_CHECK below if you believe that SHA1's
# 1461501637330902918203684832716283019655932542976 hashes do not give you
# sufficient guarantee that no collisions between objects will ever happen.
You can document your disbelief.
But it does not change a thing. Since v0.99~653, we do not have any
collision check, even if compiled with COLLISION_CHECK.
