It might be clear to many what this is from the subtitle. But since I took the time to click through I’ll summarize: it concatenates multiple text files into one text file / string with markers so that the individual files can be extracted out again with intact file content, path, and permissions.

Sooooo like tar, with less features?
(Checks summary)
Ok, so compared to tar it is:
Human readable.
AI friendly.
Not sure if that’s much reason to use it.
I guess the argument is: If you want human-readable archives, you can then pick txtar. But mongotar basically adds some of the tar features which were missing from txtar
