    Summary: A GNU file archiving program
    Description: 
    The GNU tar program saves many files together into one archive and
    can restore individual files (or all of the files) from the archive.
    tar can also be used to add supplemental files to an archive and to
    update or list files in the archive.  tar includes multivolume support,
    automatic archive compression/decompression, the ability to perform
    remote archives and the ability to perform incremental and full backups.
