Description Bernard Johnson 2007-04-27 15:26:13 UTC 
Description of problem:

Support efficient sparse file backup via:
tar -S
and
rsync -S

This should probably be an option to the backup set, as on rare occasions I know
that there is a bug in rsync that will cause sparse file backup to barf.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
