## Version 1.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Can specify any command as de/compressor when archiving.
|
|
|
|
- The commands must accept file data in stdin and output processed data to
|
|
|
|
stdout.
|
|
|
|
- Can specify any command as decompressor when extracting to override the
|
|
|
|
simple-archive's stored decompressor.
|
|
|
|
- Archives/compresses into chunks to reduce overhead by compressing per chunk
|
|
|
|
instead of per file.
|
|
|
|
- Chunk size can be tweaked by a parameter setting.
|
|
|
|
- Can archive without de/compressor to be compressed separately.
|
|
|
|
- Supports pre-version-1 simple archiver file format (version 0).
|
|
|
|
- Archives regular files and symlinks.
|
|
|
|
- Keeps track of files and symlink permissions.
|
|
|
|
- Keeps track of file UID and GID (only set if extracting as root).
|
|
|
|
- Can be set to ignore absolute paths for symlinks by parameter setting.
