I've done as you asked, though I don't see the reason it was necessary to do
so.  Files seem to be listed in reverse chronological order of upload, so it's
always apparent what the most recent version of a file is from the page
layout.  If in doubt, you can snoop the URLs and look for the attachment ids,
though I'd just grab the topmost link.  (The JIRA install at Apache works the
same way, and that's how we handle multiple uploads with the same name.)  Is
there something I've missed?

Since the preferred method of patch submission is "git format-patch", the
filename doesn't change unless either the first line of the commit changes or
the submitter manually appends a version to it.  I can do that, but it's an
extra step.
