I have a file .tgz
created using tar cvzf tartest.tgz tester/*
, and if I specify tar with the file tar --list -f tartest.tgz
, I have the following structure
tester/2017-08-02_131404.png
tester/cfg.pdf
tester/tests/
tester/tests/1.png
tester/tests/2.png
tester/tests/3.png
tester/tests/4.png
tester/tests/5.png
If I compare tar with the source folder using tar -df tartest.tgz tester/*
, everything is fine, no problem, no error
If I add the file 20171006_183137.png to the tester folder and try again, I will get an error, as expected:
tar: tester/20171006_183137.png: Not found in archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
If I add the file 20171006_183137.png to the tester / tests folder and try again, I will not get errors and empty output.
If I add the -v option during the last test, I just get the list of files in tar.
Is there a way to recursively compare tar with the source folder and subfolders?
