-# Description: ensure tar correctly respects -C option when deleting
-# files due to the --remove-files option.
+# Description: If tar 1.26 was called with the --remove-files option and told
+# to archive (and thus delete) two subdirectories where the second was
+# specified relative to the first, it would be unable to delete the
+# second directory (and its contents), since the relative path would no
+# longer be valid once the first directory was deleted.
