Objective: restore all /home files and directories from an existing full-system tar archive excluding hidden files.
The closest I've been able to come is 'tar -xvpf existing.tar --directory=../ ./home
That command will restore only home/ files and directories, but it will also restore hidden files and directories to /home.
Does anyone know how to avoid restoring the hidden files and directories to home/?
TIA
