[BagIt](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8493) bags.

It is in early development, and not ready to be used yet.

## Not Supported

1. Files containing newline characters in their name. The [1.0
spec](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8493#section-2.1.3)
requires that `CR`, `LF`, and `%s` are percent encoded in
manifests. However, I have yet to find an implementation that does
this correctly. As such, the least broken behavior is to reject the
creation of bags containing files with newline characters in their
names, and do not decode the paths when reading manifests. The
issue is documented
[here](https://github.com/LibraryOfCongress/bagit-spec/issues/46).
2. Tag files **must** be UTF-8 encoded. Other encodings may be
supported eventually.
3. Only BagIt version `1.0` is supported. `0.97` will likely be
supported eventually due to its prevalence.
