#Note:Very Very Important research tar actually creates an archiving of all absolute paths, which are not required.


#The option -C works; just for clarification I'll post 1 example

#creation of a tarball without the full path: full path /home/testuser/workspace/project/application.war 
#and what we want is just project/application.war so:

#tar -cvf output_filename.tar  -C /home/testuser/workspace project

#Note: there is a space between workspace and project; tar will replace full path with just project
