Never use filename as key or value in any "design"

Never use filename as key or value in any "design"

Using filename as key or value in mapping or reference will fail.

Both Git and (older) MySQL has this horrible design. Moving data files between operating systems ares hopeless with such choices, it's also open to attacks when using special chars as "!", ";" , "/" (and others) in the key/value.
