Never mind, I thought that, using your algorithm, it was possible to 
create files in two different directories with identical version 
numbers, then move the directories around to swap the paths of the files 
with the same version number, but as I tried to come up with an example, 
I discovered that it looks like it isn't possible, starting with an 
empty file system.
