Subject: [PATCH v2] archive: rewrite description for compression level option
Date: Fri, 15 Oct 2021 19:13:37 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211015121336.46981-1-bagasdotme@gmail.com> (raw)
Rewrite the description of `-#` option. Since the option is also
supported on tar archive, move to OPTIONS section and remove EXTRA.
Signed-off-by: Bagas Sanjaya <bagasdotme@gmail.com>
---
Changes since v1 [1]:
- Mention common levels (store-only, fastest time, and best
compression).
- Note that compression level option is supported by both zip and
tar format, so move the description to OPTIONS section.
