I think this is a reasonable proposal. I think it is good style to let tarfile figure out which supported compression methods are available instead of shutil or the user. So far I have no objections.
Following 3.3's crypt module, I think the name `methods' is superior to `formats' (maybe `compression_methods' is even better). Also, crypt's concept of a sorted list from stronger to weaker could also make sense here: ["xz", "bz2", "gz"]. Why not? |
