I split a huge folder:
$ tar cvpf - somedir | split -b 50000m
… and then I transferred the split files to another server and merged it:
$ cat x* > somedir.tar.gz
but when I tried to extract the file, it shows errors:
$ tar xvf somedir.tar.gz
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
How can I transfer/extract it to be folder again? thanks
