| Files created by `git archive` are not understood by the Python interpreter. This could be caused by the additional comment (for the commit hash) in the file. echo 'print(1)' > __main__.py git init && git add __main__.py && git commit -m init git archive --format=zip HEAD > y.zip python y.zip Packing it with `zip x.zip __main__.py && python x.zip` works. | ||

| You are correct. zipimport does not support zip files with comments. There is already an open issue (issue 5950) for adding support for this. |
