Archiver Utilities

archiver-utils provides essential utility functions designed to support the `archiver` package, primarily focusing on file system and stream operations. As of its current stable version, 5.0.2, it offers robust capabilities for tasks such as directory traversal (`fs.walkdir`) and stream interface detection (`stream.detect`). The package maintains a relatively frequent release cadence, often aligning major version updates with Node.js EOL cycles and significant dependency upgrades. Key differentiators include its tight integration with the `archiver` ecosystem, providing specialized helpers that enhance the core archiving functionality, ensuring efficient and reliable handling of file and stream inputs. It is not intended as a standalone archiving solution but as a foundational helper for `archiver` itself.
