| "minitar" is a minimal example of a program that uses libarchive to
 | |
| read/write various archive formats.  It's a more ambitious version of
 | |
| 'untar.c' that includes compile-time options to enable/disable various
 | |
| features, including non-tar formats, archive creation, and automatic
 | |
| decompression support.
 | |
| 
 | |
| I use this as a test bed to check for "link pollution," ensuring that
 | |
| a program using libarchive does not pull in unnecessary code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The "minitar" program is also a good starting point for anyone who
 | |
| wants to use libarchive for their own purposes, as it demonstrates
 | |
| basic usage of the library.
