I'm putting this ticket in DSA because I'm not sure where to file it. We probably would do best to make sure deposits don't contain a name collision earlier in the deposit process (H2, Preassembly, ?).
In the AWFL layout, we use this pattern for the content-addressed storage:
/stacks/bc/123/df/4567/bc123df4567
The original stacks layout puts files in:
/stacks/bc/123/df/4567
This means there's a name collision if the depositor names a file or folder bc123df4567 and places that in the root directory of their deposit. That would result in the depositor's own content being at the path
/stacks/bc/123/df/4567/bc123df4567
The results of this collision range from
failure to deposit, if there's a druid-named file - example)
confusion over which files are content and which files are metadata, if there's a druid-named folder (example)
There doesn't seem to be a problem if there's a druid-named folder or file outside of the root of the deposited content (example)
I tested with user-versioned items starting in H2 but since this is at the stacks layout level, the results would be the same for hierarchical deposits coming from Preassembly.
