      public class TarFileSet
      extends ArchiveFileSet

  A TarFileSet is a FileSet with extra attributes useful in the context of Tar/Jar tasks. A TarFileSet extends FileSets with the ability to extract a subset of the entries of a Tar file for inclusion in another Tar file. It also includes a prefix attribute which is prepended to each entry in the output Tar file.
