* Support for POSIX ACLs, extended attributes and SELinux context.
Starting with this version tar is able to store, extract and list
extended file attributes, POSIX.1e ACLs and SELinux context. This is
controlled by the command line options --xattrs, --acls and --selinux,
correspondingly. Each of these options has a `--no-' counterpart
(e.g. --no-xattrs), which disables the corresponding feature.
Additionally, the options --xattrs-include and --xattrs-exclude allow
you to selectively control for which files to store (or extract) the
extended attributes.
