Create default subdir in tarball #109

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
When tarball is extracted, this is done in the current directory. The tarball 
has no subdirectory containing the files.

The defacto standard is to have a subdirectory inside the tarball. When user is 
not paying attention and extracting in wrong directory (i.e. /usr/local/src/) 
this takes some effort. It's very easy to have a subdir inside the tarball, 
containing all the files.
