Description: E[x]ploded Zip File System
        ==========================
        
        ``xzip`` is a FUSE_ file system for deduplicating zip files which share zipped
        contents.
        
        To install use::
        
            $ pip install xzip
        
            or
        
            $ easy_install xzip
        
        ``xzip`` provides three executables ``zipexplode``, ``zipanalyze``, and
        ``mount.xzip`` which will "explode" a zip, analyze a zip file, and mount
        exploded zips respectively.
        
        The file structure for an exploded zip is the following::
        
            $ zipexplode path/to/zip/name-of-zip.zip
            $ tree .
            .
            ├── data
            │   ├── <sha1-data-file1>
            │   ├── <sha1-data-file2>
            │   ├── ...
            │   └── <sha1-data-filen>
            └── meta
                ├── name-of-zip.zip.dir
                ├── name-of-zip.zip.jump
                └── name-of-zip.zip.stream
        
        The file structure would be mounted by::
        
            $ mount.xzip . path/to/mount/point
            $ ls path/to/mount/point
            name-of-zip.zip
        
        
        Data files may be shared between any number of exploded zips files, and the
        meta tuple (``*.dir``, ``*.jump``, ``*.stream``) describe the original zip
        file.
        
        
        ``zipexplode`` accepts two options ``--directory`` and ``--depth`` to modify
        where it creates the ``data`` and ``meta`` directories and how many levels deep
        the ``data`` directory should be. ``zipexplode`` can explode multiple zip files
        at once, and additional help is provided with the ``--help`` option.
        
        
        ``zipanalyze`` simply prints out the sha1 of different segments of the original
        zip file. This script was used to determine what could be deduplicated, and
        what needed to be stored per zip file. This executable is mainly of historical
        use.
        
        ``mount.xzip`` will mount the directory structure described above, and needs to
        be supplied with matching ``directory`` and ``--depth`` arguments to when
        ``zipexplode`` was called.  Additional arguments ``--debug``, ``--foreground``,
        and ``--single-threaded`` are passed to FUSE_ and control underlying
        functionality. For more information see the ``--help`` for ``mount.xzip``.
        (``mount.xzip`` also takes ``-o`` style options)
        
        **Note: At this time  xzip is not zip64 safe**
