I wish the #AndroidSDK team would follow repository best practices and stop silently reissuing binary releases under the same name/version. #MavenCentral does not allow this, for example. The #FDroid transparency log shows the newest violation: two version of sources-34_r01.zip with the file name, version code, and metadata.
The newer version of sources-34_r01.zip is 8MB smaller, that's really strange:

@cketti that sounds good, but why post sources-34_r01.zip then fix something, then re-post sources-34_r01.zip? They have a revision number there for a reason, e.g. sources-34_r02.zip. It just seems so sloppy.
@eighthave Oh, absolutely agreed. I was only commenting on the file size difference.
@eighthave Looks like they've finally fixed what goes in the sources.zip.
When you compare it to sources-33, you'll realize there was so much irrelevant stuff in there. Just top-level directories: androidx, benchmarks, jsr166, junit, mypackage, perftests, pkg, tck.
