I can successfully create a tar file with something akin to
tar -czvf /path/to/archive.tgz /path/to/file/to/backup
Once the archive.tgz file is created, how does one add another file to
it? Everything I've read gives me the impression that
tar -rzvf /path/to/archive.tgz /path/to/other/file/to/backup
should work. However, that's blowing my archive.tgz file up. Any ideas?
What I'm trying to do is write a script to create archive.tgz if it
doesn't exist (works), and add a file to it, if it does already exist
(currently blows up my archive).
