Lzip 0.5 (Default branch)

Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the
LZMA algorithm, with very safe integrity checking
and a user interface almost identical to the one
of bzip2. Lzip is only a data compressor, not an
archiver. It has no facilities for multiple files,
encryption, or archive-splitting, but, in the Unix
tradition, relies on utilities such as GNU Tar for these tasks. Lzip is very well suited for software distribution.
