So, rather than letting the regression proceed and return the archive
to a consistent state, you deleted the marker that said that recovery
was needed and pushed another backup into that damaged archive. And,
you have done this ("as usual") several times.

I would be surprised to discover any practical way to fix that.  I
suspect that your "very long history" has been corrupt for quite
some time.
