| Description |
|
The TarFileTree class and the Project.tarTree() method produce some really succinct code, as in: task foo(type: Copy) { from tarTree('foo.tar') to 'destdir' }It would be great if this was extended to support gzip'ped tarballs, as well. |

I found many use cases for that at the client's. Without that feature the builds are cluttered with ant builder stuff, interim temp folders are used and generally accidental complexity raises. Also since gradle can produce gzips it should be nice if it could also read them easily |

FWIW, I submitted a patch that implements this functionality. |
