Sometimes it is handy to use archive formats that do not confuse our windows friends. Or perhaps you want a quick listing, or to update files without reading and writing the entire thing (i.e. non-solid archives).

Zip or 7z and friends can be handy. The problem is that with their Windows hertitage they do not always (reliably) retain certain UNIX metadata. Here is are some very simple workarounds via the find command.

#ZIP #7zip #7z #linux

A simple shell‑based workaround for archiving projects with symlinks in formats that don’t preserve them (e.g. .7z or certain .zip files). It generates a script that records all symlinks, excludes them from the archive, and later recreates them after extraction.

I'm trying to fix a "non existing issue" for some hours. What is my issue?
My issue is, that 7z is too good to be true. It can open everything and even "invalid" zip files.
What is invalid? It seems that some closing bytes were missing which caused many issues to read them via code.

Interesting here: The Windows Explorer has some issues, too, to open the zip-file and shows an error message.

I guess cross-checking the files you're creating is a good thing to do..
