      @io.write header
      @io.pos = final_pos

      self
    end

Adds file `name` with permissions `mode`, and yields an `IO` for writing the file to

add_file_digest (name, mode, digest_algorithms) { |io| ... }
Source

    # File lib/rubygems/package/tar_writer.rb, line 137
    def add_file_digest(name, mode, digest_algorithms) # :yields: io
      digests = digest_algorithms.map do |digest_algorithm|
        digest = digest_algorithm.new
        digest_name =
          if digest.respond_to? :name
            digest.name
          else
            digest_algorithm.class.name[/::([^:]+)\z/, 1]
          end

        [digest_name, digest]
      end

      digests = Hash[*digests.flatten]

      add_file name, mode do |io|
        Gem::Package::DigestIO.wrap io, digests do |digest_io|
          yield digest_io
        end
      end

      digests
    end

Adds `name` with permissions `mode` to the tar, yielding `io` for writing the file. The `digest_algorithm` is written to a read-only `name`.sum file following the given file contents containing the digest name and hexdigest separated by a tab.

The created digest object is returned.

add_file_signed (name, mode, signer) { |io| ... }
Source

    # File lib/rubygems/package/tar_writer.rb, line 169
    def add_file_signed(name, mode, signer)
      digest_algorithms = [
        signer.digest_algorithm,
        Gem::Security.create_digest("SHA512"),
      ].compact.uniq

      digests = add_file_digest name, mode, digest_algorithms do |io|
        yield io
      end

      signature_digest = digests.values.compact.find do |digest|
        digest_name =
          if digest.respond_to? :name
            digest.name
          else
            digest.class.name[/::([^:]+)\z/, 1]
          end

        digest_name == signer.digest_name
      end

      raise "no #{signer.digest_name} in #{digests.values.compact}" unless signature_digest

      if signer.key
        signature = signer.sign signature_digest.digest

        add_file_simple "#{name}.sig", 0o444, signature.length do |io|
          io.write signature
        end
      end

      digests
    end

Adds `name` with permissions `mode` to the tar, yielding `io` for writing the file. The `signer` is used to add a digest file using its digest_algorithm per `add_file_digest` and a cryptographic signature in `name`.sig. If the signer has no key only the checksum file is added.

Returns the digest.

      remainder = (512 - (size % 512)) % 512
      @io.write("\0" * remainder)
