PeterAlfreadLee commented on issue #87: COMPRESS-124 : Add support for 
extracting sparse entries from tar archives
URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-compress/pull/87#issuecomment-558989557
 
 
   Code just pushed basing on reviews of @tcurdt and @melloware .
   Exception for one review opinion :
   Is creating a separate class `TarArchiveSparseInputStream` a good idea or 
not?
   
   Of course I can make `TarArchiveInputStream` be able to handle sparse 
entries, therefore I need to modify the `read()` and `skip()` in 
TarArchiveInputStream when we are reading sparse entries.
   
   The reason why I create a new class `TarArchiveSparseInputStream` is that I 
don't want to modify `TarArchiveInputStream` too much. I want to try my best to 
keep the `TarArchiveInputStream` as the original logic as much as possible.
   
   With a separate `TarArchiveSparseInputStream`, I can replace the input 
stream to a new `TarArchiveSparseInputStream`. I don't need to modify the 
`read()` or `skip()` in `TarArchiveInputStream`.
   
   I'm not sure if creating a single `TarArchiveSparseInputStream` is a good 
idea or not.
   
   What do you think?
