I have on my poudriere build host a ports tree and wanted to move it to
the host where the resulting packages are installed:
root@jet:/usr/local/poudriere/ports # du -sh ports20230806
397M ports20230806
root@jet:/usr/local/poudriere/ports # tar cf p.tar ports20230806
root@jet:/usr/local/poudriere/ports # ls -lh p.tar
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 672M Oct 3 18:00 p.tar
already the size of the tar file is somewhat magic; but if you un-tar it
on the other host I will get:
[guru@c720-1400094 ~]$ ls -lh p.tar
-rw-r--r-- 1 guru wheel 672M 3 oct. 18:00 p.tar
[guru@c720-1400094 ~]$ tar xf p.tar
[guru@c720-1400094 ~]$ du -sh ports20230806
1,2G ports20230806
How this is possible?
