              Increase verbosity level.  Can be used several times.

EXAMPLES

       mercurial-pristinetar 1.2.3

              Create         pristine        ../mypack_1.2.3.orig.tar.{gz,bz2,lzma,xz}        and
              ../mypack_1.2.3.orig-component*.tar.{gz,bz2,lzma,xz}   if   applicable   from   the
              repository in the current directory.

BUGS

       Generating tarballs compressed by lzma(1) might not end up being identical to the original
       because the pristine-tar(1) suite does not have support for lzma(1).
