- Use symlink_metadata instead of exists/is_dir in create_archive, get_tree, and print_verbose_tree to avoid incorrectly following symlinks.
- Disable following symlinks in tar Builder by default.
- Implement clean_path to fix path normalization for paths containing parent directory components (..).
- Add integration tests for symlinks, nested symlinks, and path normalization.
