title: query on tar and .snapshot directories
body: <p>We've content which amounts to 110GB on NAS. While running tar to copy this to use in a different location, by default the ".snapshot" directories were also getting included. The corresponding tar file size way exceeded the 100GB; had to interrupt the tar command when the size reached 140GB.</p>
  
  <p>Solaris 10.</p>
  
  <p>Can we exclude these directories? What are the implications?</p>
  
  <p>Regards, <br/>
