     Generate a SHA-1 hash value as defined in
     NIST, FIPS PUB 180-1: Secure Hash Standard, April 1995.
-    This may be used as checksum
-    or for generating cryptographic signatures.

+    Notice:
+        Be aware that SHA-1 is considered broken and may not be appropriate in some applications.
+        Especially it should no longer be used for security stuff.
