🗁 VPack Archiver v1.2.0 · Universal Archive Manager

Modern, ultra-fast universal archive manager, compressor, and WinRAR/7-Zip equivalent for .vpack archives built with 100% pure Rust.

✨ What's New in v1.2.0

  • 🚀 Multi-Codec Compression Engine:
    • Added LZ4 Streaming Compression (-C lz4) for ultra-high throughput compression and instant decompression.
    • Retained Deflate Compression (-C deflate) for high compatibility and strong compression ratios.
    • New -C/--codec flag allowing users to select between deflate (default) and lz4 (fastest).
  • ⚡ Multi-Codec CPU Benchmark Suite (vpack b):
    • Expanded integrated benchmark with 4 hardware-accelerated passes: Deflate Compress, Deflate Decompress, LZ4 Compress, and SSE4.2 CRC-32.
  • 🛡️ Hollow Canvas Local Release Pipeline:
    • Replaced GitHub Actions entirely with a deterministic local build, test, audit, package, verify, VirusTotal scan, and publish pipeline (scripts/pipeline.py).
    • Automatic VirusTotal API v3 multi-engine antivirus verification.
    • Cryptographic verification via SHA256SUMS.txt and native vpack t integrity tests.
  • 📦 Self-Packaging (Dog-Fooding):
    • Releases are distributed in both portable .zip and native .vpack formats, built using the freshly compiled release binary itself.
