GitHub mystery: "Check for source changes (pull_request)" failed

New one to me!
The new
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/30555
is dead in the water, with a "Check for source changes (pull_request)" failure.
Afraid to say I don't even know what that's trying to check.
The details show this at the end:
Error: Can't use 'tar -xzf' extract archive file: /home/runner/work/_actions/_temp_e6eccc97-eabe-4596-b4b2-6ea2f8c672cb/8fca955b-16e0-4c1b-81a8-38d568264bd6.tar.gz. return code: 2.
Clues? It's a simple PR, making a few changes to just one C file.

Bizarre. "Check for source changes (pull_request)" apparently fixed itself by magic. Now "Check if generated files are up to date (pull_request)" is failing instead, in a similar way ("Can't use 'tar -xzf' extract archive file"). Nope! No idea here what that's trying to check either ;-)

It seems to an incident of GitHub. https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/cypv026dr23w?utm_ts=1641954539

That was me! 🧙 I re-ran the workflow to see if it was a sporadic failure.
Now "Check if generated files are up to date (pull_request)" is failing instead
Then I saw that and looked at the github status website, which indicated an issue. Patience is the remedy!
Cheers

Cool! No more or less mysterious to me than if you hadn't ;-)

Too late! It passes now :-) After waiting a couple hours, I poked around until finding a button that made it try that part again. This time it passed.
But somehow I managed to convince it run nearly 70 different jobs A mystery I will happily leave uninvestigated.
Thanks for chipping in!

The 70 different jobs were presumably the full complement of buildbots (requested by setting a special label on the PR, which one of our GitHub bots watches).
