Hi,

I would like to 'tar' only the files modified since a given date, for
directory and all of it's subdirectories. So it has to be recursive and
it has to preserve the directory structure of the modified files.

I plan on using this for managing backups and deployments.

Thanks

p.s. remove the '333' from my address
