Re: [Bug-tar] incremental backups and --one-file-system (version 1.25)

Ah, sorry, I wasn't clear.  What we'd like is a simple
test case that anyone can run, that illustrates the problem.
Ideally it would be a single, self-contained shell script
that creates any requisite files and then invokes GNU tar
to illustrate the bug.  I can then add this test case to
the existing GNU tar test suite, as the first step in
constructing a fix.

I'm hoping that you can do this in two or three lines of
shell scripts, and that it doesn't require any massive
infrastructure like pulling in a copy of Amanda.
