Subject: 'Snapshot' action cannot produce compressed tar output.
Not yet pulling in ticket creation comment
Within the code SHA1s (and refs) are handled explicitly like any other string. They should really be defined in terms of a type constraint at the least (although the regexp is still needed for munging stuff). Further thoughts welcome :)
If the user requests 'tgz' as the snapshot format, they'll actually be returned a tar. If the user requests 'tbz(2)', they will receive an error. Both these should work and return the correct format. P.S. - Ignore first comment, too stoned :)
