says level is 1..9

actually 0 works too - this the original uncompressed data but with a gzip header.

I need level 0 for getting a smaller git repository with many svgz files which have often been edited (the file names and types cannot be changed)

So - is this a documentation bug or have I just been lucky?

You're right, it's a documentation bug; I've filed http://bugs.python.org/issue15677 to track it. Regards, -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi
