Subject: Re: Large number of files in single directory
Try:
$ find <directory> -exec tar -avf foo.tar {} \;
Didn't work. The -a is an invalid option on Fedora, it seems. I replaced it with -cz to create and compress the tar file, but even with that, it goes through the list of files (lists them one per line) as if it was actually taring them, but the resulting .tar file only has the very LAST file that tar listed - and nothing else in it. :-?
