tar
NAME tar - The GNU version of the tar archiving utility
SYNOPSIS tar [ - ] x -extract | c --create | t --list | u --update | … filename1 [ filename2, ... filenameN ] directory1 [ directory2, ...directoryN ]
DESCRIPTION This manual page documents the GNU version of tar , an archiving program designed to store and extract files from an archive file known as a tarfile. A tarfile may be made on a tape drive, however, it is also common to write a tarfile to a normal file. The first argument to tar must be one of the options: Acdrtux, followed by any optional functions. The final arguments to tar are the names of the files or directories which should be archived. The use of a directory name always implies that the subdirectories below should be included in the archive.
