About

Derived originally from minitar, this crate implements basic functionality for creating and extracting tar archives. It has been adapted to allow creation of a Node (Tar header + 512byte blocks of data) from the raw data plus file metadata. This allows for better efficiency when it is embedded into another application (such as a package manager), as the raw data and metadata about each file can be extracted once and reused for purposes such as generating checksums, getting file sizes and creating packing lists.
