    There is a big problem!
    It doesn't work but in console (tar -xvzf packagename.tar.gz)  the file was unpacked!

    $ php -r "new \PharData('d:/Downloads/commithook-master.tar.gz');"
    PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'UnexpectedValueException' with message 'phar error: "D:\Downloads\commithook-master.tar.gz" is a corrupted tar file (checksum mismatch of file "52 comment=4d08b1e311f074f7281c0f1c21912776ac51394b
