Extract a tar file into the current working directory. If the contents
of the tar file are namespaced into their own directory, then this is
the same as tar x. However, if the contents extract all over the
working directory (i.e., a tarbomb), then a directory is first created
for them (with the same name as the archive, with the extension
removed).
Extract the tar FILE into a subdirectory of the current working
directory:
tbd [options] FILE
The following tar options can be passed through:
| Flag | Option |
|---|---|
m |
Do not extract modification time |
o |
Set owner to yourself |
p |
Preserve file permissions |
v |
Verbose output |
These may be specified with or without a preceding dash.
