例子

1. 将文件打包

[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -cvf file.tar somefile.txt            # 仅打包，不压缩
[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -zcvf file.tar.gz somefile.txt        # 打包后，以 gzip 压缩
[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -jcvf file.tar.bz2 somefile.txt       # 打包后，以 bzip2 压缩

2. 将压缩包解压

[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -xvf file.tar           # 解压tar包
[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -zxvf file.tar.gz       # 解压gzip包
[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -jxvf file.tar.bz2      # 解压bzip2包

3. 查看tar包里面的内容

[root@cinder01 ~]# tar -tvf file.tar

tar --help

[root@cinder01 ~]# tar --help
Usage: tar [OPTION...] [FILE]...
GNU `tar' saves many files together into a single tape or disk archive, and can
restore individual files from the archive.

Examples:
  tar -cf archive.tar foo bar  # Create archive.tar from files foo and bar.
  tar -tvf archive.tar         # List all files in archive.tar verbosely.
  tar -xf archive.tar          # Extract all files from archive.tar.

 Main operation mode:

  -A, --catenate, --concatenate   append tar files to an archive
  -c, --create               create a new archive
  -d, --diff, --compare      find differences between archive and file system
      --delete               delete from the archive (not on mag tapes!)
  -r, --append               append files to the end of an archive
  -t, --list                 list the contents of an archive
      --test-label           test the archive volume label and exit
  -u, --update               only append files newer than copy in archive
  -x, --extract, --get       extract files from an archive

 Operation modifiers:

      --check-device         check device numbers when creating incremental
                             archives (default)

  -G, --incremental          handle old GNU-format incremental backup
      --ignore-failed-read   do not exit with nonzero on unreadable files
      --level=NUMBER         dump level for created listed-incremental archive
  -n, --seek                 archive is seekable
      --no-check-device      do not check device numbers when creating
                             incremental archives
      --no-seek              archive is not seekable
      --occurrence[=NUMBER]  process only the NUMBERth occurrence of each file
                             in the archive; this option is valid only in
                             conjunction with one of the subcommands --delete,
                             --diff, --extract or --list and when a list of
                             files is given either on the command line or via
                             the -T option; NUMBER defaults to 1
      --sparse-version=MAJOR[.MINOR]
                             set version of the sparse format to use (implies
