DESCRIPTION
"virt-tar-out" packs a virtual machine disk image directory into a tarball.

parameter is the tar file to write. Use "-" to write to standard output.

JUST A SHELL SCRIPT WRAPPER AROUND GUESTFISH
This command is just a simple shell script wrapper around the guestfish(1) "tar-out"
command. For anything more complex than a trivial copy, you are probably better off using
guestfish directly.
OPTIONS
Since the shell script just passes options straight to guestfish, read guestfish(1) to see
the full list of options.
