Description

(Replacing #1496 which has become a mess, references #5940)

If multiple servers create archives, then those archives can have different SHA1s which is problematic. Potential solutions:
- hash the contents in a reproducible way (might be very slow)
- just avoid recreating archives all the time (depends on ecosystem but preferable)
