+"<option>By-Hash</option> (<option>by-hash</option>) can have the value "
+"\"yes\", \"no\" or \"force\" and controls if APT should try to acquire "
+"indexes via an URI constructed from a hashsum of the expected file instead "
+"of using the well-known stable filename of the index. Using this can avoid "
+"hashsum mismatches, but requires a supporting mirror. The value "
+"\"yes\"/\"no\" activates/disables the use of this feature if this source "
+"indicates support for it, while \"force\" will enable the feature regardless "
+"of what the source indicates. Defaults to the value of the option of the "
+"same name for a specific index file defined in the "
+"<option>Acquire::IndexTargets</option> scope, which itself defaults to the "
+"value of configuration option <option>Acquire::By-Hash</option> which "
+"defaults to <literal>yes</literal>."
