Subject: [RFC PATCH 07/13] ez: use portable uid/gid accessors in write_to_tar
Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2026 12:49:35 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260425194943.1499-8-lutgaru@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260425194943.1499-1-lutgaru@gmail.com>

os.getuid and os.getgid are POSIX-only; calling them directly raises
AttributeError on Windows.  Use getattr with a lambda returning 0 so tar
entries are created with a harmless numeric uid/gid on platforms that do
not have POSIX user identifiers.
