I see this as a declarative vs imperative approach. The interface is a bit barebones and heavy right now by needing to fire up node and run the functions. But like declarative vs imperative DevOps, the declarative nature of the resulting format seems like it can carry a lot of the same benefits. POSIX scripting and other tools are a viable alternative as well. Though despite knowing all of the commands you’ve mentioned, and regularly sharing/applying git patches, I think I would still have difficulty renaming FileA to FileB in a tarball or patch prior to unpacking or applying it. The declarative approach seems like a nice feature that greatly reduces the cognitive friction there. But as a single feature, it’s not clear whether it’s worth a tool change.
