Compute a checksum for each file in a Tar archive.
This is a rewrite of tarsum.py in Rust.
cargo install --git https://github.com/guyru/tarsum
tarsum [OPTIONS] [INPUT]
Arguments:
[INPUT] File to process. If missing or set as -, read stdin
Options:
-o, --output <OUTPUT> Save signatures to file
-c, --checksum <CHECKSUM> Select a checksum algorithm (md5, sha1, sha256, sha384, sha512)
[default: sha256]
-z, --zero Output a zero byte (ASCII NUL) at the end of each line, rather than a
newline. This option enables other programs to parse the output even
when that output would contain data with embedded newlines. Also file
name escaping is not used
-h, --help Print help information
-V, --version Print version information
