I don't think that the zip file should be under version control, BUT
there should be a SCRIPT (or some other automated, repeatable, reliable
method) for generating the zip file. For some of the things I distribute
this way, the script generates the documentation, builds the zip file,
and uploads it to the right location on my server. I can type one
command to update the server to the current version.
