The issue has come up before:

I don't know of any plans for changing the --link-by-hash patch, but if
someone is interested in working on it, I can integrate changes into it.

One simple change would be to prime the computed hash using some
external data (e.g. uid, gid, and/or mode), but it sounds like at least
the original creator would like this to be optional.
