See function convertNameToFile() in src/utils.cpp, in particular the "long names" case.

Basically, first a number of characters are escaped (e.g. a ':' becomes '_1'), and when the resulting file name gets longer 
than 128 characters, an md5 hash is created for this name, and this is then appended to the 
first 96 characters of the name.
