# Changelog
## Upcoming Changes
More robust handling of de/compression process (handling SIGPIPE).
By default files are pre-sorted by size before placed into chunks.
Add option to NOT pre-sort files by size.
## 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.
