Like, even Microsoft - the company that infamously hated FOSS back in the day - is now openly using FOSS components in Windows.

Compressed archive support in Windows beyond ZIP is based upon the FOSS project libarchive, for example.

Windows has had the ability to extract various archive types via libarchive for over two years.

The part that Microsoft skipped?
An Extract all button in Explorer.
You know, to extract files from an archive.

A job done, folks.

Our legacy D infra carries the old D impl of our binary format. The rust version is our canonical truth, where new features happen.

In parallel to this tarkah has enabled a C FFI bridge for external tools to understand our archive format, tested with libarchive.
Much props to tarkah, our core rusty dev, for converting the first part of our infrastructure to rust.

Importantly, that component is vessel, our repository manager. This is a critical step in enabling versioned repositories, using the rust stone format implementation.

@fearthecowboy.bsky.social as the person in charge of that integration, I can say that you’ll have a newer version of all the libarchive tools once the agents update to Server 2025 :)
