add nohash prefetch item
This command downloads a file without verifying the file's hash. This is insecure and not recommended, but it might be necessary in some cases.
It must be between a begin prefetch block and an end prefetch block command.
Unlike add prefetch item, it can only specify one download and relevance substitution is not allowed within the arguments of this command.
