[PATCH v2 8/9] SubmittingPatches: clarify GitHub artifact format

From: Josh Soref via GitGitGadget <hidden>
Date: 2023-12-21 16:41:15
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

From: Josh Soref <redacted>

GitHub wraps artifacts generated by workflows in a .zip file.

Internally, workflows can package anything they like in them.

windows-artifacts.zip
  Length      Date    Time    Name
---------  ---------- -----   ----
 76001695  12-19-2023 01:35   artifacts.tar.gz
 11005650  12-19-2023 01:35   tracked.tar.gz
---------                     -------
