    Are you calling tar via a custom command?  tar itself looks to have
    a few options to print progress:<br>

    Although none of the options seem to know the archive's size, so
    aren't able to print a completion percentage.<br>

        <div dir="ltr">When running tar via CMake (in order to use
          cross-platform work-ability and what not) it'd be great to

          <div>It's awkward to wait 30-60 minutes for file untarring
            with absolutely 0 information. I'm not aware of any way to
            do this through CMake directly, only alternative is e.g.
            python script that does the untar for me.</div>
