Name
     qtar -- a somewhat shorter tar invocation

Syntax
     qtar [-x] [--ext|--svn] archive_file [tar-options...]  files...

Options
     -x     Exclude SCM directories like "CVS", ".svn", ".hg" and ".git".

     --ext  Sort files by extension

     --svn  Sort  files such that file.c and .svn/file.c are next to each other,
	    to yield better compression of SVN checkout tar archives  where  the
	    .svn file is often a copy of the former.
