Attached is a small batch file I developed just for this use.

I'm finding a lot of CRC errors, apparently caused by problems
with zip on the provider's shell.

So far, I have not noticed any problems with 'rezip'ped batches,
after import to Yarn; but rezipping locally makes a zip file that
does not cause an error for yarn.
