* In the examples, use "tar.gz" as the extension forTim Kientzle2006-05-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | gzip-compressed tar archives. Thanks to: Mike Hunter Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=158204
* Use the .Fx macro.Simon L. B. Nielsen2006-01-171-2/+7
| | | | | | | MFC after: 3 days Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=154489
* Remove the -B option from the directory-copying examples. The -BTim Kientzle2005-12-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | option is undocumented because it does nothing. It does nothing because bsdtar never needs it. It is accepted because gnutar does sometimes need it and many scripts use it. Reported by: Pawel Jakub Dawidek Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=153258
* Fixed troff warnings.Ruslan Ermilov2005-06-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | Approved by: re (blanket manpages) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=147624
* Point users to tcsh(1) for information about shell globbing patterns,Murray Stokely2005-04-191-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | rather than 'XXXX'. MFC after: 1 week Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=145284
* Add directory hierarchy copying example.David E. O'Brien2005-03-281-0/+7
| | | | Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=144244
* Add --newer-ctime, --newer-mtime, --newer-ctime-than, and --newer-mtime-thanTim Kientzle2005-03-131-0/+29
| | | | | | | | | | switches to support selecting files by time of modification. Special thanks to: Steven M. Bellovin, Rich $alz, and Jim Berets, authors of the public-domain getdate.y date-parsing code. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=143528
* Add --strip-components option, per bin/77666.Tim Kientzle2005-03-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | Thanks to: Sangwoo Shim Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=143486
* Document the --null, --one-file-system, and -I options.Tim Kientzle2005-02-181-5/+34
| | | | | | | Clarify that -T can be used in 'x' mode as well as 'c' mode. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=142063
* Sort sections.Ruslan Ermilov2005-01-181-52/+52
| | | | Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=140420
* Added the EXIT STATUS section where appropriate.Ruslan Ermilov2005-01-171-1/+1
| | | | Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=140368
* Document the -O option's new behavior in the presence of -t.Tim Kientzle2004-08-271-2/+4
| | | | | | | MFC after: 3 days Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=134370
* gtar uses -F for another purpose, so bsdtar no longer treats it as aTim Kientzle2004-08-081-16/+13
| | | | | | | | | synonym for --format. Update the man page to reflect this. While I'm here, change the man page to document "tar" rather than "bsdtar," update some comments about -l compatibility and fix a few grammar nits. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=133331
* GNU and POSIX disagree about -o and -l.Tim Kientzle2004-08-031-2/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For -l, upset everyone by breaking it. Specifically, -l now produces a lengthy error message that suggests --check-links (POSIX -l) or --one-file-system (GNU -l) instead. However, if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, use the POSIX interpretation. For -o, please everyone by making it work both ways: * -xo uses POSIX behavior * -co uses "almost GNU" behavior (as close as we can get until libarchive implements a true V7 tar format) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=133053
* Correct the explanation of the -X option.Tim Kientzle2004-08-011-3/+5
| | | | | | | Thanks to: Pav Lucistnik Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=132974
* Of course, I meant POSIX.1-1996, not 1997.Tim Kientzle2004-07-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | Thanks to: Andrey Chernov Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=132620
* My bad: /dev/sa0, no 'r'Tim Kientzle2004-07-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | Thanks (and many apologies) to: Cristoph Mallon Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=132486
* Fix some misspellings, document the TAPE environmentTim Kientzle2004-07-191-2/+16
| | | | | | | variable and the default tape device. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=132377
* Fixed cross-references in SEE ALSO.Ruslan Ermilov2004-07-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | Emininated double space and hard sentence breaks. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=131595
* Mechanically kill hard sentence breaks.Ruslan Ermilov2004-07-021-1/+2
| | | | Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=131491
* Document the -W convention for accessing long options.Tim Kientzle2004-06-261-9/+15
| | | | | | | Also correct an old error: there was no tar command in Sixth Edition. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=131157
* Rename C=dir to -C dir, which is what people expect.Tim Kientzle2004-06-261-32/+7
| | | | | | | | | | This requires some non-trivial surgery to the options parsing. While here, let people who only have getopt() access long options through the -W longopt=value convention. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=131156
* Oops: gtar's --dereference should be a synonym for bsdtar's -L, not -H.Tim Kientzle2004-06-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | Pointed out by: devel/nspr port Thanks to: Kris Kennaway Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=130326
* The --include='pattern' option is the natural counterpart toTim Kientzle2004-06-071-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | --exclude='pattern'. I should have added this a long time ago, since it's so useful for testing. In particular, it allows me to select a few entries from a troublesome archive so that I can easily focus my debugging efforts: bsdtar -czf new.tgz --include='*foo*' @old.tgz Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=130171
* Correction: -h should be a synonym for -L, not -H.Tim Kientzle2004-05-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | (as specified by Linux Standards Base, GNU tar, and 4.4BSD documentation) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=129903
* Update manpage to track new security features.Tim Kientzle2004-05-171-28/+125
| | | | Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=129313
* -U is now implemented. (It's been recognized by bsdtar for a while;Tim Kientzle2004-04-291-1/+4
| | | | | | | now libarchive actually supports the underlying request.) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=128733
* Remove information about specific formats; replace with aTim Kientzle2004-04-281-64/+4
| | | | | | | reference to libarchive-formats(5). Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=128704
* Manpage changes suggested by Irina Liakh.Tim Kientzle2004-04-131-19/+44
| | | | | | | Also, add -h as a synonym for -H, for Linux Standards Base compliance. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=128200
* Allow arguments to appear in any order.Tim Kientzle2004-04-081-8/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | While I'm here, add a couple of extra sanity-checks to the argument parsing (reject -j -z, for instance) and update the docs a bit. Requested by: most everyone ;-) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=128039
* Document the newly-implemented -T option.Tim Kientzle2004-04-081-2/+10
