(Get the code!)
Thanks, Robert. This root cause was a defective USB drive. The corrupt file was in the destination branch, and the source branch is still completely intact (a huge relief).
If I could, I'd rename this bug to "zlib errors should include file name" as that would have helped me understand the problem much more quickly. I incorrectly assumed that the decompression error indicated a corrupt file in the source branch, and it wasn't until I tried to reformat the destination drive that I really figured it out.
