Well, I found this blog post, which seems to help solve the problem. It quotes this Stack Overflow question.
Rename files on ISO file or Flash-BOOT-USB in PATH: G:\repodata\

The actual file names may very as newer versions of the files become available. Expected file names are contained in the repomd.xml
file. Since the first part of the file name stays the same, you can use it to find the associated entry in repomd.xml
.
And if you don’t like XML, you can also use TRANS.TBL
, it also contains the complete names.
As for the reason: The first part of the file name already maxes out the length Windows can support via Joliet—64 characters. As such, complete file names are only visible when using a tool that supports the Rock Ridge extensions. Like Linux, naturally. ;)
