How to know if a Pandas DataFrame was modified

I would like to know if a pandas.DataFrame was modified or not.

One idea is to create a hash value for the whole data frame.

# Credits: https://stackoverflow.com/a/62754084/4865723
hashlib.sha1(pd.util.hash_pandas_object(df).values).hexdigest()

But I wonder if there might be another way doing this. Any ideas?
