try on your machine

The command "phar info -f ${path-to-phar_file}" is used to get information about a Phar archive file. Here's a breakdown of the components:

"phar": It refers to the PHP Archive (Phar) extension. Phar is a file format used in PHP to combine multiple PHP scripts into a single archive file.
"info": This is the subcommand of the "phar" command specifying that we want to retrieve information about a Phar archive file.
"-f ${path-to-phar_file}": It is an option indicating the path to the Phar archive file for which we want to gather information. You need to replace "${path-to-phar_file}" with the actual file path on your system.

When you execute this command with the appropriate path, it will display details about the Phar archive file, such as its size, compression details, file contents, and any metadata associated with it.
