So we have an initial answer: https://forum.gitlab.com/t/gitlab-release-tarball-stability/41888/3?u=diegorondini The summary is: tarballs can be regenerated, but they are regenerated identical by git archive according to the manual. The use of git archive in the source code is not guaranteed in the future as at the moment there is no immutability test in the gitaly service. Martin, Khem, what do you suggest to do?
