Example
-------
'repo-add' is often invoked twice to create two separate databases; a smaller
database used by pacman and a large database containing package file lists for
use by other utilities.
'repo-add' foo.db.tar.xz <pkg1> [<pkg2> ...]
'repo-add' -f foo.files.tar.xz <pkg1> [<pkg2> ...]
While pacman can use the large database (if given a db.tar* extension), there
is currently no additional benefit for the larger download.
