Hi there,
I noticed that busybox tar won't overwrite existing files when extracting.
Could we implement some of these features please:
-k, --keep-old-files don't replace existing files when extracting
--overwrite overwrite existing files when extracting
-U, --unlink-first remove each file prior to extracting over it
--recursive-unlink empty hierarchies prior to extracting directory
I'll need the "--overwrite" option.
Steven
