I am having trouble with the --exclude-from option in version 1.13. It appears --exclude-from does not work. Below is the command line I am using and multiple --exclude-from file(s).
tar -c -f x9.tar -v --exclude-from=xx.txt *.* Below are multiple --exclude-from files that I have tried to use, "file xx.txt" is not in the file and I will show after the last line of the file "EOF". I have attempted to use each of the file formats and no errors are being reported. file xx.txt *.cache EOF file xx.txt '*.cache' EOF file xx.txt --exclude=*.cache EOF file xx.txt --exclude='*.cache' EOF _________________________________________________________________ Robert Murphy 859-219-8455
