Hi Guys,
I'm facing a problem when using commons compress to extract an tar.gz file,
which contains sparse file. I spent the whole afternoon on it but no luck.
The limitations page
([https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-compress/limitations.html)] says
sparse files are not supported.

I found the issue created by Stepan
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-124) in 2013, says sparse files
could only be skipped.
Is there a plan to support extracting sparse file in this project?
