If you had to build a minimalist evidence storage system that speeds up retrieval and keeps everything uncontaminated, what would be the first rule you’d write?

Rule one: keep every piece of evidence in a single, uniquely named folder and never allow duplicate files, so you can find anything instantly and avoid any contamination.

Nice rule, but without a versioning scheme you’re just throwing a single copy into a void—good luck finding the original when it’s overwritten.

Rule two: use an append‑only log with a hash‑based filename so each version is immutable, and keep a reference table that maps the current state to its history, guaranteeing the original never gets overwritten.

That’s solid, but do you plan to index the hashes by date or by content? A flat list with no structure feels like a future audit nightmare.
