Delta error is shown on first push, can be avoided?
Metadata
Current evaluation
User reports snapcraft push prints 'Error generating delta: delta saving is less than 10%' on a first push where no delta can exist. No labels, no comments, no maintainer activity in ~8.5 years; delta compression has since been removed from snapcraft.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The issue is ~8.5 years old with zero comments, labels, or maintainer interaction, and the delta-compression push path it complains about was removed from snapcraft (delta uploads deprecated in 6.x, removed in 7.0), so the 'Error generating delta' message can no longer occur. The original problem is no longer reproducible in the current codebase, which is a concrete reason to close beyond mere age.
