Verlauf

Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

DAR, Disk ARchive, is a Unix backup and archiving suite designed as a disk-oriented alternative to tar, with slicing, catalogs, differential backups, compression, encryption, and libdar for applications.

Projektgeschichte

DAR documentation frames the tool as a replacement for tar that can use direct access on disk media, while also evolving to support tape-like streaming use. Its authentication page records signed releases back to April 2002, and its source documentation says the project used RCS in 2002, CVS until Q1 2012, then Git.

Adoptionsgeschichte

DAR's adoption is visible in its packaging footprint and in the project's own list of tools using dar or libdar. The package appeals to Unix backup users who want archive slicing, isolated catalogs, strong verification, differential workflows, and scriptable command-line operation.

Wie es verwendet wird

Users commonly create, list, test, compare, extract, isolate, merge, repair, and transform archives with the dar suite, using /etc/darrc or ~/.darrc for defaults and options such as remote FTP/SFTP repositories when compiled with the needed libraries.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

DAR is interesting packaging terrain because the feature matrix depends on optional libraries: compression codecs, libgcrypt and gpgme, librsync, libcurl, libssh, filesystem attributes, threading, Python bindings, and documentation generators all affect what a distro build can do.

Zeitleiste

2002: DAR release signing and early RCS-era source history are documented.
2012: The project moved from CVS to Git in Q1 2012.
2017: DAR began cloning its Git repository to GitHub while keeping SourceForge updated.
2026: Generated Disk ARchive 2.8.x documentation remains published.

Related projects

DAR is related to tar, rsync-style delta workflows through librsync, par2/Parchive protection, AVFS, dar-backup tooling, and applications that consume libdar rather than shelling out to the dar command.
