I'm trying to package git annex for ArchLinux and NixOS. That task would be a *lot* easier, if there were proper release archives available for download. The Gitweb site offers to create snapshot tarballs on the fly, but those tarballs have a different SHA hash every time they're generated, so they cannot be used for the purposes of a distribution. A simple solution for this problem would be to enable snapshots in zip format (because zip files look the same every time they're generated).

The tarballs produced by gitweb are actually stable. They are wrapped in a gz file with a varying timestamp however. It might be nice if gitweb passed --no-name to gzip to avoid that inconsistency.
git-annex also has a [pristine-tar](http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/pristine-tar/) branch in git that can be used to recreate the tarballs I upload to Debian.

git v1.7.5.1 fixes the gitweb gzip issue. If the git instance is updated we
can have stable distributions (and I can finally write a FreeBSD port ^_^)

Hmm, I've upgraded to that version, but I see nothing in its changelog, commit log, code, or runtime behavior to indicate that it's producing stable gzip output.

Whups, the fix landed in git's `maint' branch just after 1.7.5 but 1.7.5.1 was
tagged on a different branch.
Will look closer in future, and let you know when it's really released.
