When tar runs on macOS it embeds ._* resource-fork sidecars next to each
file. These ended up under l4d2web/alembic/versions/ on the target and
alembic tried to import them as migration modules, failing with
"source code string cannot contain null bytes". Set COPYFILE_DISABLE=1
and add an --exclude '._*' so the archive is portable.

The HTTP-only test deployment binds gunicorn to 0.0.0.0:8000 with no TLS
terminator, so a hardcoded SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE=True breaks browser
login. Make it opt-out via env (default True outside TESTING) and set
SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE=false in the generated web.env so the test box
keeps working over HTTP.
