Subject: | Is tar -cjf deterministic? |

I've noticed more than once that when I recreate a bzip2'ed tar archive on cygwin, the file length is slightly different. Yet it expands into the same directory tree (as determined by recursive diff). Is there something nondeterministic about tar and bzip2 on cygwin? If so, is it unique to cygwin? Just wondering. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
