in the finally-block, we wait for the filter process to die. but it only dies voluntarily if all data was processed by the filter and it terminates due to EOF. otoh, if borg has thrown an early exception, e.g. "archive already exists", we need to kill the filter process to bring it to an early end. in that case, we also do not need to check the filter rc, because we know we killed it.

Full borg commandline that lead to the problem (leave away excludes and passwords)
borg import-tar -p -s path_to_repo::archive_name filename.tar.zstd
Describe the problem you're observing.
The command was hanging without any output. I think it is an error due to the archive already existing but not properly propagating back to user. If I unzstd the file before, and try it with an uncompressed tar file it correctly gives
Archive archive_name already existsCan you reproduce the problem? If so, describe how. If not, describe troubleshooting steps you took before opening the issue.
Try running import-tar with a zstd compressed tar file when the archive_name already exists in the repo
