If the files are truncated, they are truncated by just a tiny little bit.
When I create an archives locally, they have very similar sizes:
locally on vcs0 (these archives are not truncated):
cd /srv/hg/octave
hg archive -r tip /tmp/tip.tar.gz
hg archive -r tip /tmp/tip.tar.bz2
hg archive -r tip /tmp/tip.zip
$ ls -log /tmp/tip.*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 5299911 Feb 8 22:51 /tmp/tip.tar.bz2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 6570179 Feb 8 22:51 /tmp/tip.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 8971416 Feb 8 22:52 /tmp/tip.zip
and over the web:
wget http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/archive/tip.tar.gz
wget http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/archive/tip.tar.bz2
wget http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/archive/tip.zip
$ ls -log tip.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 5319138 Feb 8 22:52 tip.tar.bz2
-rw-r--r-- 1 6596892 Feb 8 22:52 tip.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 9099805 Feb 8 22:53 tip.zip
Note the file sizes are not expected to be equal, because in the web version
the subdirectory is 'octave-ac76a90f17ff' while in the local version it is
simply 'tip'.
But the truncation is very small.
So perhaps it's an nginx/fastcgi/wsgi/python problem ?
to be continued...
