sbp opened a new issue, #647:
URL: https://github.com/apache/tooling-trusted-releases/issues/647

   In #629 we decided to classify files as binary by default when not detected 
as metadata files. Because ASF votes are held on source artifacts only, our 
default classification should be that non-metadata files are source archives.
   
   We may also be able to go a step further. In 
https://github.com/apache/tooling-trusted-releases/issues/553#issuecomment-3786628013
 there is an analysis of what existing file types we accepted in SVN. We 
already created a list of [artifact types which is included in the ATR 
source](https://github.com/apache/tooling-trusted-releases/blob/94964c675fbdf20b92273de828d8b27fbae0b719/atr/analysis.py#L28-L59),
 but not all of these are source artifact types (e.g. it includes `.exe`). We 
could easily detect archives, and limit automatic source classification to 
those.
   
   We could also specifically deny some file types, such as `.DS_Store` and 
`.htaccess`. Early on, we discussed allowing headers and footers to be 
uploaded, but I think our current stance is that use of these will not be 
implemented in ATR so we should not allow them to be uploaded.
