pax constant

TarFormat const pax

PAX header format defined in POSIX.1-2001.

PAX extends USTAR by writing a special file with either the x or g type flags to allow for attributes that are not conveniently stored in a POSIX ustar archive to be held.

Some newer formats add their own extensions to PAX by defining their own keys and assigning certain semantic meaning to the associated values. For example, sparse file support in PAX is implemented using keys defined by the GNU manual (e.g., "GNU.sparse.map").
