This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.14' of 'GNU
tar' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be
found at

http://freshmeat.net/projects/tar/

The changes in this release are as follows:
Support for POSIX.1-2001 and ustar archive formats was added. A new
--format option selects the output archive format. The default
output format can be selected at configuration time by presetting
the environment variable DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_FORMAT (allowed values are
GNU, V7, OLDGNU, USTAR, and POSIX). A new --strip-path option cuts
off a given number of path elements from the name of the files being
extracted.

Project description:
GNU `tar' saves many files together into a single tape or disk
archive, and can restore individual files from the archive. It
includes multivolume support, the ability to archive sparse files,
automatic archive compression/decompression, remote archives and
special features that allow `tar' to be used for incremental and full
backups. It also includes `rmt', the remote tape server (the `mt'
tape drive control program is in GNU `cpio').

Trove categories:
[Environment ] Console (Text Based)
[Intended Audience ] End Users/Desktop
[License ] OSI Approved :: GNU General Public License (GPL)
[Topic ] System :: Archiving :: Compression
