This project appears to be dead or unmaintained. A similar project appears to be Tiger. It was originally created and maintained by Gordon Mohr who also works on the similar BitCollider project.

Tiger-Tree Hashing is a method to verify that small chunks of a file are valid, and free from corruption. Tigertree is a hash tool implementing the TigerTree cryptographic hash. TigerTree is calculated by applying the Tiger hash to 1024-byte blocks of a stream, then combining the interim values through a binary hash tree.
