4288103c2e Put leading '*' in direntry. 
Accommodate new gfdl sectioning.
New option --recursion (the default) that is the inverse of --no-recursion.

New options --anchored, --ignore-case, --wildcards,
--wildcards-match-slash, and their negations (e.g., --no-anchored).
Along with --recursion and --no-recursion, these control how exclude
patterns are interpreted.  The default interpretation of exclude
patterns is now --no-anchored --no-ignore-case --recursion
--wildcards --wildcards-match-slash.

ae2b051832 Add Free Documentation License. New section 
"Overwrite Old Files", and revamp that section to make it easier to
follow.  "tar" -> "GNU tar" where appropriate.  Migrate getdate
documentation into getdate.texi.  Fix several minor typos.  Describe
TAR_OPTIONS.  Describe incompatibility between incremental backups and
--atime-preserve.  Describe incompatibility between --verify and other
options.  Mention that tar normally removes symbolic links rather than
following them, when extracting a file of the same name.
