Archives created with --format tar.gz and --format zip aren't reproducible #31

Open tjanez opened 8 years ago

tjanez commented 8 years ago

I've created a simple Bash script reproducibility-test.sh to test the reproducibility of various --format options. I've also compared it to git's built-in archive command.

Here are sample results for a git repo with submodules:

As can be seen from the results, git's built-in archive command always creates reproducible archives, regardless of the --format option.

On the contrary, git-archive-all.sh only creates reproducible archives with the --format tar option.

Huh. What happens if you add the -n (--no-name) switch to the various calls to gzip? Per the gzip manual page:

-n, --no-name This option stops the filename and timestamp from being stored in the output file.

Could perhaps the timestamp added to the gzip file header be causing a discrepancy?

You can export GZIP=-n https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/86493/files#diff-f98fdb70c813cc44cd5600f4a059ee25R36 to avoid the behavior in gzip.

@Mic92, thanks for the tip. I can confirm this works:

adding -n switch to gzip calls would make gzipped tarballs reproducible.

I think this should just be added in by default. In the script
