-This is GNU cpio, a program to manage archives of files.
-As of version 2.0, it supports the features of the System V release 4
-cpio, including support for tar archives.
-
-The main advantages of GNU cpio over Unix versions are:
-
-* It can access tape drives on other hosts using TCP/IP.
-
-* `-o' and `-p' can copy symbolic links either as symbolic links or,
-with `-L', as the files they point to.
-
-* `-i' automatically recognizes the archive format and tries to
-recover from corrupted archives.
-
-* The output of '-itv' looks like 'ls -l'.
-
-* It accepts long-named options as well as traditional
-single-character options.
-
-A few features of other versions of cpio are missing from GNU cpio, including:
-
-* The `-6' option to support Sixth Edition Unix cpio archives with `-i'.
-
-* An option to limit volume size, like afio -s.

-GNU cpio supports the POSIX.1 "ustar" tar format.  GNU tar supports a
-somewhat different, early draft of that format.  That draft format has
-a slightly different magic number in the tar header and doesn't
-include the path prefix part of the header, which allows storing file
-names that are longer than 100 characters.  GNU cpio knows to
-recognize the nonstandard GNU tar "ustar" archives.
-
-The following patch to GNU tar 1.11.1 makes GNU tar recognize standard
-"ustar" archives, such as GNU cpio produces, except that it won't use
-the path prefix.  Without this patch, GNU tar thinks that standard
-"ustar" archives are old-format tar archives and can not use the extra
-information that "ustar" format contains.  If you use this patch,
-remember that you will lose the beginnings of paths that are longer
-than 100 characters.  That's why it's not an official part of GNU tar.
-(Adding support for the path prefix to GNU tar is not trivial.)
