#
# BackupPC_tarIncCreate: create a tar archive of an existing incremental dump
# 
#
# DESCRIPTION
#  
#   Usage: BackupPC_tarIncCreate [options]
#
#   Flags:
#     Required options:
#
#       -h host         Host from which the tar archive is created.
#       -n dumpNum      Dump number from which the tar archive is created.
#                       A negative number means relative to the end (eg -1
#                       means the most recent dump, -2 2nd most recent etc).
#       -s shareName    Share name from which the tar archive is created.
#
#     Other options:
#       -t              print summary totals
#       -r pathRemove   path prefix that will be replaced with pathAdd
#       -p pathAdd      new path prefix
#       -b BLOCKS       BLOCKS x 512 bytes per record (default 20; same as tar)
#       -w writeBufSz   write buffer size (default 1MB)
#
#     The -h, -n and -s options specify which dump is used to generate
#     the tar archive.  The -r and -p options can be used to relocate
#     the paths in the tar archive so extracted files can be placed
#     in a location different from their original location.
