So the first time when we read "allowAnySHA1InWant = true", we take the first path through that function you linked. The second time, we take the else branch, and correspondingly unset the bits from ALLOW_ANY_SHA1. So today that is doing the right thing (it will end with the same bits set that we started with). But under the proposed patch that behavior would change, and the lower two bits would still be set. > So as suggested I will prepare a patch for documentation, so it will be also > clear for others.
