Keep getting this error:

Number of entries expected in End Of Central Directory does not correspond to number of entries in Central Directory.

Looks like an issue your side?

   Well, it worked on a test BitBucket git repo: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/FeodorFitsner/test-git-public

   Might be something specific to your repo. Was it a sporadic error or you are seeing it all the time?

   Going to try re-building an old commit to see if that still works - if it does, would imply it's something i've done.

   Yeah, give it a try. Last AppVeyor update was on March 21st: http://www.appveyor.com/updates/2015/03/21

   Disable "Download repo as zip archive" to make it use git command for cloning repo.

   A quick question - how big repo's zip could be? Larger than 4GB?

   its big. Was over 1.6 GB last time I checked. Can't imagine it's 4gb. Rebuilding an old commit worked.

   I'm trying the disabling the 'download as zip option '

   Yes, and set "Git clone depth" to 1 (or other minimal value depending on the frequency of commits).

    so telling it to do a clone failed as wel,l with the same message, which is odd as it seems to be referring to a zip operation.

    Nope, it should use git clone ... command. Do you have appveyor.yml?

    Ah, Yes I do, I changed in web admin, I'm guessing yml take priority?. Give me a sec, i'll try that.

    Yep, exactly.

    Well that made it clone out successfully. Intrigued as to what the original issue was though. Obviously freaking out on extracting the zip file for some reason.

    It's definitely unzip issue of .NET built-in ZipArchive library. Few google search results hinted it might be size issue.

    For the sake of curiosity could you download your BitBucket repo as a zip to check its size:

    https://bitbucket.org/{owner}/{repo}/get/{commit-id}.zip
