.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
borg [common options] export\-tar [options] ARCHIVE FILE [PATH...]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
This command creates a tarball from an archive.
.sp
When giving \(aq\-\(aq as the output FILE, Borg will write a tar stream to standard output.
.sp
By default (\fB\-\-tar\-filter=auto\fP) Borg will detect whether the FILE should be compressed
based on its file extension and pipe the tarball through an appropriate filter
before writing it to FILE:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\&.tar.gz or .tgz: gzip
.IP \(bu 2
\&.tar.bz2 or .tbz: bzip2
.IP \(bu 2
\&.tar.xz or .txz: xz
.IP \(bu 2
\&.tar.zstd: zstd
.IP \(bu 2
\&.tar.lz4: lz4
.UNINDENT
.sp
Alternatively, a \fB\-\-tar\-filter\fP program may be explicitly specified. It should
read the uncompressed tar stream from stdin and write a compressed/filtered
tar stream to stdout.
.sp
Depending on the \fB\-tar\-format\fP option, these formats are created:
.TS
center;
|l|l|l|.

.sp
A \fB\-\-sparse\fP option (as found in borg extract) is not supported.
.sp
By default the entire archive is extracted but a subset of files and directories
can be selected by passing a list of \fBPATHs\fP as arguments.
The file selection can further be restricted by using the \fB\-\-exclude\fP option.
.sp
For more help on include/exclude patterns, see the \fIborg_patterns\fP command output.
.sp
\fB\-\-progress\fP can be slower than no progress display, since it makes one additional
pass over the archive metadata.
