About SHA-1
SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1) is a hashing function that produces a 40-character hexadecimal digest from any input. It was once widely used for digital signatures and TLS certificates, and is still used today for checksums and Git commit identifiers.
Note: SHA-1 is deprecated for security purposes due to practical collision attacks. Use SHA-256 or better for digital signatures, certificates and password-related work.
