Yes, provided that the shell doesn't expand them. (so put the globbed name inside quotes) For example: $ ls double-zeros* double-zeros-bsd.tar double-zeros-gnu.tar $ tarsnap -c --dry-run -v --include double-zeros* double-zeros-* a double-zeros-bsd.tar $ tarsnap -c --dry-run -v --include "double-zeros*" double-zeros-* a double-zeros-bsd.tar a double-zeros-gnu.tar $ I'll add a warning about this to selecting-files.html.
