Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: Fix description of archive "--prefix"
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2009 15:42:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090429134236.GU36958498@CIS.FU-Berlin.DE> (raw)

The description of the "--prefix" option suggested that a slash would
automatically be appended to the specified <prefix>, which is not the
case.
