+ The {timeout, Timeout} option passed to

+ through to ssh:connect. In case the timeout occurs during

+ Supports tar file creation on other media than file
+ systems mounted on the local machine.</p>
+ <p>
+ The <c>erl_tar</c> api is extended with
+ <c>erl_tar:init/3</c> that enables usage of user provided
+ media storage routines. A ssh-specific set of such
+ routines is hidden in the new function
+ <c>ssh_sftp:open_tar/3</c> to simplify creating a tar
+ archive on a remote ssh server.</p>
+ <p>
+ A chunked file reading option is added to
+ <c>erl_tar:add/3,4</c> to save memory on e.g small
+ embedded systems. The size of the slices read from a file
+ in that case can be specified.</p>

+ Hooks for funs that can change binaries sent to remote

+ added. See <c>ssh_sftp:open_tar/3,4</c> for details. The
+ hooks could also be used to read remote tar files that
+ need transformation before file extraction.</p>
+ <p>
+ Those hooks are intended for encryption and decryption of
+ tar files. Effort is put into memory, disk and network
+ resource economy.</p>
