It depends only on the contents. This allows us to use a list of 
different URIs (see the lsof package for an example) or try many 
different mirror://s as long as they serve the right file.

In general: yes, but not without prior investigation.

The server might be serving a temporary error page instead of a usable 
tarball (SF.net is currently notorious for doing so), or the tarball 
might have been updated in-place (and you'll have to manually diff the 
contents to make sure it's legitimate), or it might just be a problem 
with your network, or...

Pushing a hash update without explanation in the commit message will 
result in lots of spam from people like me. Avoid that.

Kind regards,
