hello, i just downloaded your beta 2 arduino ide, on a fresh install of win10x64, installed fine, when i tried to add the OpenTracker board manager, it fails installation with archive size mismatch error. upon closer inspection, and a look through the logs, i came upon this line:

upon inspection the folder structure is in tact, until the git folder. so i dont know if thats something you all need to know or what, but i figured i would let you know.
thanks for your work
**update: installed stable arduino ide, and tried to install opentracker to the board manager, and it went through just fine. so i guess it is the beta.

The error is correct. They have defined the size of bossac-1.5-opentracker-x86_64-w64-mingw32.tar.gz as 218849 bytes in the package index file for opentracker but it's actually 218874.

Arduino IDE 2.x is more strict about validation of the Boards Manager installation than the classic Arduino IDE. Now that you have installed it, you can switch back to using it in Arduino IDE 2.x.

This is unrelated to the problem with installing opentracker. Arduino IDE 2.x has some optional advanced Git integration functionality which can only be used if Git is installed and accessible to Arduino IDE 2.x. So you can get these errors about Git if the IDE tries to use that functionality without Git. For example:
But this is completely optional. The standard functionality works perfectly without Git.
