The Free Software Foundation's "tar" tape archiver.
GNU tar saves many files together into a single tape or disk archive,
and can restore individual files from the archive. It includes
multivolume support, the ability to archive sparse files, automatic
archive compression/decompression, remote archives and special
features that allow tar to be used for incremental and full backups.
This distribution also includes rmt, the remote tape server.
Note that this port will install these utilities with a 'g' prefix,
e.g. gtar, but the man pages and info documentation will refer to
them without the 'g' prefix.
===> The following configuration options are available for gtar-1.35_1:
NLS=on: Native Language Support
STATIC=off: Build static executables and/or libraries
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
archivers/gtar: fix build on i386
Override a hidden safety check that stops the build on platforms
that are not Y2038 safe. FreeBSD/i386 still has a 32-bit time_t.

archivers/gtar: switch the default archive to stdin/stdout
The gtar port tries to use the same default archive location as the
base system tar. Starting with libarchive 3.6.0, bsdtar defaults
to reading/writing the archive from stdin/to stdout in the common
case where the /dev/sa0 device does not exist on a system.
Using "-" as the default archive file is also the GNU upstream
default.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

archivers/gtar: update to 1.33
Noteworthy changes:
* POSIX extended format headers do not include PID by default
* --delay-directory-restore works for archives with reversed member ordering
* Fix extraction of a symbolic link hardlinked to another symbolic link
* Wildcards in exclude-vcs-ignore mode don't match slash
* Fix the --no-overwrite-dir option
* Fix handling of chained renames in incremental backups
* Link counting works for file names supplied with -T
* Accept only position-sensitive (file-selection) options in file list files
Update to 1.31. Noteworthy changes:
* Support for zstd compression (if zstd is installed).
* The -K option interacts properly with member names given on the command line.
* Fix handling of file shrinkage during read access when --sparse is used.
Install texinfo files (GNU info) into ${PREFIX}/share/info
After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.
Now texinfo is not in base on any of the supported version of FreeBSD
it is possible to proceed to this move and it is easier to do than
the manpage change.
Other benefit than consistency are less patching: all build tools but
cmake are expecting info files to be under share/info and cmake (patched here)
was having an exception for BSD so the patch makes FreeBSD case less
specific for them
Bump revision of all impacted ports
PR: 232907

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D17816
Update to 1.30. Noteworthy changes:
* Member names containing '..' components are now skipped when extracting.
* Report erroneous use of position-sensitive options.
* --numeric-owner now affects private headers too.
* Fixed the --delay-directory-restore option
* The --warnings=failed-read option
* The --warnings=none option now suppresses all warnings
* Fix reporting of hardlink mismatches during compare
Most commonly used build systems support silent builds, when they
hide actual commands executed and only show short summary line (like
"CC foo.c"). CMake and ninja enable this by default, some autotools
using ports do as well. This is unacceptable because we need complete
build logs at any time, so we now switch to verbose build logs
unconditionally. Note that this change deliberately affects ALL
builds and not only package builds on cluster, because we need to
be sure that user experiencing failure can always provide informative
build log regardless of settings and without rerunning the build.
Change summary:
- Always do verbose builds for cmake, ninja and GNU configure (the
latter includes check if --disable-silent-rules is actually supported
by the configure script; there are isolated cases when it's not true)
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
Do not attempt to rebuild tar.info after patching configure.
I can't reproduce this on 10.3, but have a report from 9.3.
Differences in make(1)?

Split devel/gettext in devel/gettext-runtime and devel/gettext-tools. The
first contains runtime libraries such as libintl and the latter contains
developer tools such as msgfmt. Ports that use gettext will usually need
a LIB_DEPENDS on gettext-runtime and a BUILD_DEPENDS on gettext-tools.
USES=gettext-runtime can be used to set a LIB/BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS on
devel/gettext-runtime and USES=gettext-tools can be used to set a
BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-tools. USES=gettext is now the same
as "USES=gettext-runtime gettext-tools" meaning a LIB_DEPENDS on
devel/gettext-runtime and a BUILD_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-tools.
Update gettext to 0.19.3.
Remove :oldver from converters/libiconv and devel/gettext-runtime. Leave
symlinks with the old library versions to avoid the need to bump
PORTREVISION on a large number of dependent ports. When most of the
dependent ports have had normal version updates, PORTREVISION can be
bumped on the remaining ones (low number) and the links can be removed.
Fix some ports that installed files in lib/locale instead of share/locale.

However, xz itself does not have a stable release yet, so don't force

- transformation scope flags
Testsuite fixes from upstream CVS.
* Drop workarounds for no longer supported FreeBSD releases.

- Revert previous workaround, 8.0-CURRENT has grown fdopendir(3).
- Update to 1.20.
Notable changes: This release adds support for lzma compression
and the -a option to select the compression algorithm based on
the suffix of the archive file name.
- Set --mandir and --infodir in CONFIGURE_ARGS if the configure script
supports them. This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
subdirectory detection.
