So, sometime soon, I will release a little application that does that. It uses SQLite3 as a back-end database (serverless) to control the files for my applications. I have doen most of it - it's pretty manual at the moment, but that'll change over time I guess.

This is how it looks at the moment. I can store files and update them with an automatic method. It isn't too clever at the moment - bit this is the first stab.

Targenlet - Working

The differences in files screenshot is shown below:

Targenlet - File Diffs

Looks good for now, but I'm still working on it - soon as I am done, I'll let you know.

TarExtract.exe

I knocked it up quickly in Visual Studio 2005 - so you'll need the .Net 2.0 framework. I haven't done an installation program, as that just wastes space for most people (well, the sort of people who'll be trying to extract .tar files anyway).

As I did it quickly there might be a few odd bugs - if there let me know in the comments for now.

I personally added it to my 'Send To' list.
