ZStandard compression support is enabled in this release. Homepage: https://www.gnu.org/software/tar GNU Tar provides the ability to create tar archives, as well as various other kinds of manipulation. For example, you can use Tar on previously created archives to extract files, to store additional files, or to update or list files which were already stored. Initially, tar archives were used to store files conveniently on magnetic tape. The name "Tar" comes from this use; it stands for tape archiver. Despite the utility's name, Tar can direct its output to available devices, files, or other programs (using pipes), it can even access remote devices or files (as archives). Notes ===== GNU tar is affected by a bug of 32bit Cygwin that prevents the extraction of symlinks where the target file does not yet exist (64bit Cygwin does not have that bug). To work around the issue you can either install the latest Cygwin snapshot DLL or install version 1.32 of GNU tar instead of the latest version until a new Cygwin package is released. -- *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
