archive-tar-minitar
'archive-tar-minitar' has been deprecated; just install 'minitar'. The minitar library is a pure-Ruby library that provides the ability to deal
with POSIX tar(1) archive files.
This is release 0.7, providing fixes for several issues and clarifying the
Minitar security stance. There are two minor breaking changes in this version
so that exceptions will be thrown if a negative size is provided in a tar
stream header or if the tar stream header is otherwise invalid.
This release continues the migration and modernization of the code:
* the licence has been changed to match the modern Ruby licensing scheme
(Ruby and Simplified BSD instead of Ruby and GNU GPL);
* the +minitar+ command-line program has been separated into the
+minitar-cli+ gem; and
* the +archive-tar-minitar+ gem now points to the +minitar+ and +minitar-cli+
gems and discourages its installation.
Some of these changes may break existing programs that depend on the internal
structure of the minitar library, but every effort has been made to ensure
compatibility; inasmuch as is possible, this compatibility will be maintained
through the release of minitar 1.0 (which will have strong breaking changes).
minitar (previously called Archive::Tar::Minitar) is based heavily on code
originally written by Mauricio Julio Fernández Pradier for the rpa-base
project.
