Enum EntryKind 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum EntryKind {
    File,
    Dir,
    Symlink {
        target: String,
    },
    Hardlink {
        target: String,
    },
    Other,
}

What an entry is. Hardlink is the same content as an EARLIER entry; a later phase adds CharDevice, BlockDevice, Fifo and Socket for tar and cpio, and #[non_exhaustive] keeps that from breaking downstream matches. Struct types deliberately do NOT carry this attribute — see the #[non_exhaustive] section of CONTRIBUTING.md.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

File

Dir

Symlink

Fields

target: String

Hardlink

The same content as the EARLIER entry named target, in the archive’s own name space (exactly the EntryMeta::name that entry carried, before any destination join).

A Hardlink entry’s own reader yields no bytes, and meta.size is the shared content’s size when the reader knows it, else None. Consumers never read a link’s payload; they take it from the target.
