While reviewing the md5sum read-by-chunk patch in bug 1526744, Mike H suggested filing this followup to change the algorithm to sha1:

While you're touching this code, would you mind filing a follow up bug and make it use sha1 instead of md5? sha1 is actually faster.

As suggested in the review comments for bug 1526744 (D37758), sha1 is slightly
faster.
Variables with "md5" in their names have been renamed as well.
