I have a file "foo.txt.gz" that has been uploaded with the following metadata:

Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Encoding: gzip

I'm trying to copy its contents to a new file in cloud storage that is uncompressed to workaround a bug where my tooling (gcloud) can't properly handle gzip input.

If I try to pass the compression flag on read, it complains about the file not being a gzip file, implying that transcoding is occurring:

with fs.open('gcs://jw-sandbox/uploads.txt.gz', 'rb', compression='gzip') as read_file:
...     with fs.open('gcs://jw-sandbox/uploads.txt', 'wb') as write_file:
...             shutil.copyfileobj(read_file, write_file)

gzip.BadGzipFile: Not a gzipped file (b'gs')

If I try to read the file without the compression flag and just dump contents to stdout, I only get the first N bytes of the decompressed contents where N is the compressed size:

with fs.open('gcs://jw-sandbox/uploads.txt.gz', 'rb', compression='gzip') as read_file:
...     for f in read_file:
...             print(f)

>>> print(gcsfs.__version__)
