Name

qtar — a somewhat shorter tar invocation

Syntax

qtar [ -x ] [ --ext | --svn ] archive_file [ tar-options ...] files ...

Options

-x

Exclude SCM directories like "CVS", ".svn", ".hg" and ".git".

--ext

Sort files by extension

--svn

Sort files such that file.c and .svn/file.c are next to each other, to yield better compression of SVN checkout tar archives where the .svn file is often a copy of the former.
