I guess the problems are related.

I'm pretty sure the contents files aren't necessary for a working repo

The repository itself works fine. But I cannot use apt-file to show or
find content of packages. And all the Contents-*.gz files are missing.

I don't know any tool to generate them, and I don't know the workflow.

apt-ftparchive generates them. It's not the easiest thing to use though.

And I see you asked on debian-devel and someone there suggested what the
config setting is for reprepo I think.
