Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] archive-tar: huge offset and future timestamps would not work on 32-bit

From: Junio C Hamano <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2016 13:43:57 -0700

As we are not yet moving everything to size_t but still using ulong
internally when talking about the size of object, platforms with
32-bit long will not be able to produce tar archive with 4GB+ file,
and cannot grok 077777777777UL as a constant.  Disable the extended
header feature and do not test it on them.
