Add Progress Reporting Capabilities #14

Open

Description

@thelovekesh

Currently, the package does not expose any mechanisms to report progress during archive creation. Adding support for progress reporting would be highly valuable, especially when:

  • Packing large datasets or directories

  • Integrating with tools or registries that benefit from status feedback

Proposed data points to expose during tarball creation:

  • Files being included (file names or paths)

  • Packed size (archive size on disk)

  • Unpacked size (sum of source file sizes)

  • Total file count

These enhancements would make the library more flexible and transparent for downstream tooling and user-facing applications.
