My original post:
-------------------------------------------
Hi admins,
how can i tar files beginning with dot ? (.profile, .exrc, ...)
I tried with tar cvf file.tar ./* but dot-files are not tar'ed ...
any ideas ?
-----------------------------------------
Here is the summary of this basical question:
tar cvf file.tar . -> for all the current directory (including
dot-files)
tar cvf file.tar ./.??* -> for all the dot-files (with more than 2 char.
after dot) in the current directory (excluding . and ..)
tar cvf file.tar ./directory -> for the whole directory (including
dot-files)
Thanks to about twenty persons who have answered.
Rgds,
