--- Begin Message ---Package: tar Version: 1.27-3 Severity: minor --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Hi, currently man page for tar has this description for "-s" _BEGIN_ -s, --preserve-order, --same-order member arguments are listed in the same order as the _END_ which does not look clear for me. I suggest to change it to description from http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/tar.html _BEGIN_ ‘--same-order’ ‘--preserve-order’ ‘-s’ This option is an optimization for tar when running on machines with small amounts of memory. It informs tar that the list of file arguments has already been sorted to match the order of files in the archive _END_ Thanks Tim --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.11-1-amd64 Debian Release: jessie/sid 800 unstable http.us.debian.org 800 unstable deb-multimedia.org 500 stable dl.google.com 1 experimental http.us.debian.org --- Package information. --- Package's Depends field is empty.
