[Gluster-devel] Has something broken with the -s option in the git builds?

Yes, with latest git, you are required to keep all the fetchable files same
in all servers. This is because of a possibility where you have more than
one machine serving volume files, and if they are different (say one uses
replicate, another stripe), there is a high chance that we will messup the
backend.

Hence this checksum protection for files fetched from server now. Either you
can keep all the files same, or keep the files only on one server.
