-@option{--dereference} (@option{-h}) is used with @option{--create} (@option{-c}), and causes
-@command{tar} to archive the files symbolic links point to, instead of
-the links themselves. When this option is used, when @command{tar}
-encounters a symbolic link, it will archive the linked-to file,
-instead of simply recording the presence of a symbolic link.
-
-The name under which the file is stored in the file system is not
-recorded in the archive. To record both the symbolic link name and
-the file name in the system, archive the file under both names. If
-all links were recorded automatically by @command{tar}, an extracted file
-might be linked to a file name that no longer exists in the file
-system.
-
-If a linked-to file is encountered again by @command{tar} while creating
-the same archive, an entire second copy of it will be stored. (This
-@emph{might} be considered a bug.)
