Running extract on very large files (system backups) can be too long (killed it after running several hours).
In general `extract` seem slow on tar.gz archives.
I added `timeout 100s` before the tool is called in the pre commit script:
`LC_ALL=C timeout 100s $tool_exec \"./$f\" | ...`
This allows to have the commit to complete in reasonable time, probably loosing some metadata.
