Nick Burch commented on TIKA-2099:
----------------------------------
[[email protected]] has been doing some work on Commons Compress integration
with Tika in the last week, so he's probably the best to review the proposed
removal of the special handling you've proposed
> Tar files without magic bytes are sporadically detected as text
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: TIKA-2099
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2099
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.11
> Reporter: Robin Schimpf
>
> When a tar is created with 7 Zip 9.20 the magic bytes "ustar" are not added.
> Everything seems to work file if the tar contains Microsoft Office files. But
> when only text files are contained Tika sporadically recognices it as
> text/plain. It also seems to depend on the size of the first file in the tar.
> This has to be several KB big.
> The problem was found in version 1.11 and also exists in the latest
> 1.14-SNAPSHOT.
