>Description:
when --newerXXX option is given bsdtar ignores directory subtrees where
modified or new files could exist if the parent directory is not modified.
>How-To-Repeat:
grusel# mkdir -p test/txt
grusel# echo "Hello" > test/txt/hello.txt
grusel# tar -v -c -f archive0.tar test
a test
a test/txt
a test/txt/hello.txt
grusel# echo "World" >> test/txt/hello.txt
grusel# tar -v -c -f archive1.tar --newer-than archive0.tar test
grusel# tar -t -f archive0.tar
test/
test/txt/
test/txt/hello.txt
grusel# tar -t -f archive1.tar
grusel#
