Comment (by ryandesign):

 What would be sufficiently recent? Neither `man bsdtar` nor `bsdtar
 --help` mentions an `--hfsCompression` option, on any version of macOS.

 The disk space problem is more acute on older versions of macOS, given how
 many different versions of clang need to be installed to build C++11
 ports. So I'm looking for a solution that works on older systems as well.

 What's the recommended way to determine whether files are already
 hfscompressed? I found a third-party afsctool that claims to be able to do
 it, and Apple's hfsdebug apparently can too.
