  Archive Program director here - the 6,000 repos were on the single proof-of-concept reel we archived last autumn. The full archive consists of millions of repos, including all repos with at least one star with any commits in the year leading up to 02/02/2020.

    Hello Jon, the info page mentions binaries larger than 100KB are not archived. What about images of 500KB? I really am curious what these archived tar.xz files flook like. Would have been nice if the project site included an example of what retrieved data will look like. A lot of readme.md files have illustrations. Either way it's a cool project and I like what your team did.
