'Morning, I noticed that using the FLET/SHUF/GZIP filters during a whole-file h5repack operation seems to destroy comments. This feels wrong as a default behavior and nothing in h5repack -h suggests I can prevent it.
Recreate below using the small attached HDF5 file. The recreate
behaves identically on 1.8.9 and 1.8.11. I didn't see anything in the
1.8.12 and 1.8.13 changelogs that looked like a fix for this, but I
could be wrong.
Known issue? Any workarounds?
