rehashing-datavault4dbt-entities

Recalculates hashkeys and hashdiffs across an existing raw vault with datavault4dbt's rehashing macros after a change to the hash algorithm, datatype, trimming, or case sensitivity — including the v1→v2.0.0 upgrade. Use when changing hash global variables, migrating hash logic, or upgrading datavault4dbt without dropping history.

# Rehashing datavault4dbt entities

When you change anything that affects hash output — the algorithm (`MD5`→`SHA2`), `hash_datatype`,
`hashdiff_use_trim`, or case-sensitivity vars — every hashkey and hashdiff in the Raw Data Vault must
change too, or referential integrity breaks. You have two options:

1. **Full refresh** the RDV (only if the full source history is still available to reload), or
2. **Rehash** existing entities in place with the package's rehashing macros (when history is *not*
   reloadable).

This skill is about option 2.

> **v1 → v2.0.0 upgrade.** v2.0.0 unifies/corrects hash standardization: with default settings,
> hashkeys are now `UPPER`-normalized and hashdiffs are no longer `UPPER`-normalized, plus
