Subject: pristine-gz: Always pass -f to zgz
X-Git-Tag: 0.16~1
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bf71d2cbca2ad472c8bd328e7830da7870a9e7a8;p=tools%2Fpristine-tar.git

pristine-gz: Always pass -f to zgz

to support cases where the gzip header claims that the original input file
had an extension that suggests it was itself already compressed. (Although
it can't really be.) Not doing the same for gzip because -f doesn't cause
it to ignore extensions. See #475778
