Hi I don't know if this is worth a bug report, but it looks like GNU tar does not accept wildcards in combination of the -C option.
This works for me: > tar czf foobar.tar.gz *.sql as well as > tar -C ~/foobar -czf foobar.tar.gz foobar.sql but the following command exits with an error: > tar -C ~/foobar -czf foobar.tar.gz *.sql > tar: *.sql: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors ... is it me or is it GNU tar? Best, Lx -- Lx // 0x18F80934 "so long and thanks for all the fish"
