Hi there,
can anyone explain why in the FreeBSD version of tar there isn't any
--delete option?
in the GNU versione of the tar archiving utility we have:
--delete
delete from the archive (not for use on mag tapes!)
(http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?tar)
in the FreeBSD version there's nothing similar.
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=tar)
Is there a workaround to make tar deleting a file in the archive (without
extracting, deleting, re-tarring) ?
Thanx!
