Title:
  tar makes full backup not incremental when not using "z"

Status in tar package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Using tar with: tar -czpf ...  the incremtal function works right.
  Using tar with: tar -cpf ...   the incremtal function dont work.
  Without compressing tar always produce a full backup archive.

  tar-version:  GNU tar 1.29 on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver 18.04.2

  Making achives over network using Samba cifs

  /etc/fstab:
  //192.168.178.165/x    /home/asterix/carola  cifs auto,rw,users,username=asterix,password=leo,uid=asterix,gid=asterix  0 0

  Now i am using the compression, but thereby the backuptime is much
  longer.

  Thank you for Ubuntu/Linux :-)
