On the bright side, that there=E2=80=99s just a dozen of issues on 20K pack= ages suggests it=E2=80=99s usually run. :-) I think we=E2=80=99re used to running it for new packages but not when modi= fying an existing package, which is probably when issues like that are introduced. > Is it worth adding an inexpensive check to etc/git/pre-push that also > checks for file-length and fails to push due to this issue potentially > breaking "make dist"?
