DESCRIPTION
These functions set the format that will be used for the archive.
The library can write a variety of common archive formats.
archive_write_set_format()
Sets the format based on the format code (see archive.h for the
full list of format codes). In particular, this can be used in
conjunction with archive_format() to create a new archive with
the same format as an existing archive.
archive_write_set_format_by_name()
Sets the corresponding format based on the common name.
archive_write_set_format_filter_by_ext()
archive_write_set_format_filter_by_ext_def()
Sets both filters and format based on the output filename. Sup-
ported extensions: .7z, .zip, .jar, .cpio, .iso, .a, .ar, .tar,
.tgz, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz
