* Bootstrapping
INSTALLATION).
Normally you will have to run bootstrap only once. However, if you
-intend to hack on GNU tar, you might need to run it again later. In
-this case, you will probably want to save some time and bandwidth by
-avoiding downloading the same files again. If so, create in GNU tar
-root directory the file named `.bootstrap' with the following
-contents:
-
- --gnulib-srcdir=$HOME/gnulib
-
-Replace `$HOME/gnulib' with the actual directory where the Gnulib
-sources reside.
-
-For more information about `bootstrap', run `bootstrap --help'.
