I thinks it's more like C.

c1599 is the aedist archive:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ file c1599
c1599: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC)
$ cpio -i --list < c1599
etc/project-name
etc/change-number
etc/change-set
patch/vcpx/repository/cvs.py
src/vcpx/repository/cvs.py
patch/vcpx/tests/cvs.py
src/vcpx/tests/cvs.py
src/vcpx/tests/data/cvs-created_in_branch_2_test.log
101 blocks
$
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The etc/ directory contains metadata, the src/ directory contain files
touched by the changeset and the patch/ directory contains patches for
modified and renamed files.
I've not yet looked how to access a cpio archive from python.
