> (This is a reasonable place to start, as Paths give better access to tar-relevant metadata on unix system).
> Symlink info is easier to obtain
> Unix based Paths allow access to useful attributes under "unix:*"  
> - numeric uid and gid 
> - string owner and group names
> - mtime,ctime,atime 
> - numeric mode
> - numeric dev and inode 
> - numeric rdev 
> - Linux, Solaris and Windows allow access to extended attributes 
> (MacOS X xattrs aren't supported as of jdk 9)
