tar: create verbose
1
1 2.6.3 Running '--create' with '--verbose'
1 -----------------------------------------
1
1 If you include the '--verbose' ('-v') option on the command line, 'tar'
1 will list the files it is acting on as it is working. In verbose mode,
1 the 'create' example above would appear as:
1
1 $ tar --create --verbose --file=collection.tar blues folk jazz
1 blues
1 folk
1 jazz

1 This example is just like the example we showed which did not use
1 '--verbose', except that 'tar' generated the remaining lines.

1 In the rest of the examples in this chapter, we will frequently use
1 'verbose' mode so we can show actions or 'tar' responses that you would
1 otherwise not see, and which are important for you to understand.
