Re: Emacs 29.0.50 Snapshot binaries for WIndows

.TL;DR I suspect I'm not cleaning up some work product or other; wild
guess is the .git folder structure is included.

It shouldn't.  But I create the source archive only after the build
and packaging were successful. Between, I use (only):

  git -fdx

In any case, I haven't looked into this before.  Thanks for mentioning
it.  I'll see if I can figure out what's getting in there that I don't
find in a "fresh checkout" from/of the emacs-28 branch. Probably
within a day or two.

Aside from whatever cruft removal is immediately needed, I think my
process could fairly easily be made to "notice" when file-sizes jump
around heroically. I have something now that interrupts the flow of
packaging in case I may be missing files that are part of a set
usually uploaded together.
