[PATCH v2] maint: Switch to xz compressed PAX release archives

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This allows us to produce releases that are roughly a third in
size, have no limitation on path length, and are still readable
by all supported platforms.

Changes from [v1]:

  * Update all references to .tar.gz, including spec files,
    scripts and documentation (thanks Dan)
  * Fix typo lenght -> length (thanks Ján)
