What makes a phar a phar and not a tar or a zip?
Phar — The Phar class

- Phar::interceptFileFuncs — Instructs phar to intercept fopen, file_get_contents, opendir, and all of the stat-related functions
- Phar::isBuffering — Used to determine whether Phar write operations are being buffered, or are flushing directly to disk
- Phar::isCompressed — Returns Phar::GZ or PHAR::BZ2 if the entire phar archive is compressed (.tar.gz/tar.bz and so on)
