Name : tar Product : Fedora 19 Version : 1.26 Release : 27.fc19 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/ Summary : A GNU file archiving program Description : The GNU tar program saves many files together in one archive and can restore individual files (or all of the files) from that archive. Tar can also be used to add supplemental files to an archive and to update or list files in the archive. Tar includes multivolume support, automatic archive compression/decompression, the ability to perform remote archives, and the ability to perform incremental and full backups. If you want to use tar for remote backups, you also need to install the rmt package on the remote box. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update fixes bugs for --sparse archive creation, adds documentation for extended attributes features, also --xattrs-include/exclude now implies --xattrs -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Oct 29 2013 Pavel Raiskup <[email protected]> - 1.26-27 - sparse file detection based on fstat() fix (#1024095) * Mon Sep 9 2013 Pavel Raiskup <[email protected]> - 1.26-26 - add documenation for xattrs-like options (#996753) - the --xattrs-include implies --xattrs now (#965969) * Thu Jun 20 2013 Pavel Raiskup <[email protected]> - 1.26-25 - the /etc/rmt seems to be the best place where to look for rmt binary (see the commit message in Fedora's cpio.git for more info) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #965969 - [RFE] usage of --xattrs-exclude=MASK without --xattrs should warn https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=965969 [ 2 ] Bug #996753 - The info documentation does not contain --xattrs description https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=996753 [ 3 ] Bug #1024095 - tar --sparse silently corrupts files on filesystems where non-empty files may have zero blocks https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1024095 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
