Option for acknowledging item ordering

[ianyoung]

I've noticed that the hash of an object is the same if a list contained in the object has items moved around. E.g.

obj1 = {"key": [{1: "one"},{2: "two"}]}
obj2 = {"key": [{2: "two"},{1: "one"}]}

Both of the above result in the same hash.

Strictly speaking this should be considered a change and should result in a different hash.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd ideally like the default handling to acknowledge item ordering and result in a different hash value.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Failing it being the default handling, it would be good if there was an option to set item ordering acknowledgements, resulting in a different hash value.

I see. Yes, DeepHash was originally designed to assist DeepDiff when ignore_order=True. We can add a parameter to it to disable this behavior when needed.

A parameter would be great, thanks!

In my particular use case I have a dynamic list of images inside the dictionary and the first image in the list serves as the featured image. The featured image changes every now and then so I not only need to see if there are changes but changes of item order which are important to capture.

Hi @ianyoung
This was resolved in July.
Thanks.

Awesome! Thanks for letting me know.
