# archive-backpack

This is a demo of GHC's backpack, used to fuse the functionality of
[libarchive](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/libarchive) and
[tar](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/tar).

## Performance

Performance should be rougly equal to [GNU
tar](https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/) or [BSD
tar](https://libarchive.org/) if built with the `libarchive` backend.

## Development

### Building

`archive-backpack` is built exclusively using
[cabal-install](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/).

```
cabal build all
```
