I've spoken to github engineers who swear that because github's archives
are generated using git archive they should be identical (it forces
timestamps to match the data in git).  Either way, on the releases page the
links to "Source code" are github's dynamically generated tarballs, the
other files (with sizes) were created by the maintainer and uploaded so
they won't be changing.
