I've just checked. The patch in magit looks good to me.

It is not a tramp-archive error. Any file name with the syntax
".../xxx.tar/..." is regarded as file archive, and handled as
such. ".tar" could be any extension from the list
tramp-archive-suffixes combined with tramp-archive-compression-suffixes.

Closing the bug.

Best regards, Michael.
