Here is preliminary Python implementation of the tar archiving utility. I propose to add it to Tools/script. The main purpose of this the research of which features needed the tarfile module. Another purpose is that this provides more powerful tool to create or extract tar archives on platforms where the tar utility is not installed (the tarfile module itself provides very simple command line interface).
Supported options are mainly common subset of GNU tar and bsdtar options. Some options (--absolute-names, controlling of symlinks and hardlings dereferencing and files overwriting) needs implementing new features in the tarfile module. |
