In gaehandler.py, you can add a section called skip_files which lists file patterns that appcfg skips when uploading to GAE.
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/configuringanapp.html#Skipping_Files I thought a skip_files section was included in the cgi handler, that skipped the tar files the admin app etc, since those files are not used on GAE and can cause the upload to fail if any file is over 1MB in size, but when I look in trunk, skip_files is not present, so it is a good idea to add skip_files section back in to gaehandler.py.
