With conniptioned ssh, you can archive, transfer, and extract in a single
ugly command, either push or pull.
On the first page of the Ref. for tar, I see:
You cannot use tar unless you specify –f.
Ouch! That's so idiosyncratic. Is it even true? (IIRC, POSIX no

z/OS pax provides EBCDIC->ASCII conversion (and many others).
That may be useful to the OP.
