     9  // Format represents the tar archive format.
    10  //
    11  // The original tar format was introduced in Unix V7.
    12  // Since then, there have been multiple competing formats attempting to
    13  // standardize or extend the V7 format to overcome its limitations.
    14  // The most common formats are the USTAR, PAX, and GNU formats,
    15  // each with their own advantages and limitations.
    16  //
    17  // The following table captures the capabilities of each format:
    18  //
    19  //	                  |  USTAR |       PAX |       GNU
    20  //	------------------+--------+-----------+----------

    22  //	Linkname          |   100B | unlimited | unlimited
    23  //	Size              | uint33 | unlimited |    uint89
    24  //	Mode              | uint21 |    uint21 |    uint57
    25  //	Uid/Gid           | uint21 | unlimited |    uint57
    26  //	Uname/Gname       |    32B | unlimited |       32B
    27  //	ModTime           | uint33 | unlimited |     int89
    28  //	AccessTime        |    n/a | unlimited |     int89
    29  //	ChangeTime        |    n/a | unlimited |     int89
    30  //	Devmajor/Devminor | uint21 |    uint21 |    uint57
    31  //	------------------+--------+-----------+----------
    32  //	string encoding   |  ASCII |     UTF-8 |    binary
    33  //	sub-second times  |     no |       yes |        no
    34  //	sparse files      |     no |       yes |       yes
    35  //
    36  // The table's upper portion shows the [Header] fields, where each format reports
    37  // the maximum number of bytes allowed for each string field and
    38  // the integer type used to store each numeric field
    39  // (where timestamps are stored as the number of seconds since the Unix epoch).
    40  //
    41  // The table's lower portion shows specialized features of each format,
    42  // such as supported string encodings, support for sub-second timestamps,
    43  // or support for sparse files.
    44  //

    73  	// preceding the original header. This file contains a set of key-value

    75  	// providing the ability to have sub-second resolution for timestamps.

    78  	// own keys and assigning certain semantic meaning to the associated values.
