freebsd-ports/archivers/gtar/pkg-descr
Christian Weisgerber 91f98f0e4f Update to 1.13.25:
* New option --overwrite-dir.
* Fixes for buffer overrun, porting, and copyright notice problems.
* Add Korean message catalog.

Fixes:
* Don't pick up spurious iconv dependency.
* Remove home page from pkg-descr.  It provides little but
  historical information, and links to an outdated version of the
  GNU tar manuals, a current version of which ships with the port.

The Free Software Foundation's "tar" tape archiver.
GNU tar saves many files together into a single tape or disk archive,
and can restore individual files from the archive. It includes
multivolume support, the ability to archive sparse files, automatic
archive compression/decompression, remote archives and special
features that allow tar to be used for incremental and full backups.
This distribution also includes rmt, the remote tape server.
Note that this port will install these utilities with a 'g' prefix,
e.g. gtar, but the texinfo documentation will refer to them without
the 'g' prefix.
