how to make cygwin tar output proper unicode letters instead of shashed values?

问题

I have a *.tar.gz file that have inside occasionally some names with non ascii letters.

for example when tar encounter a file containing word: naïve it outputs: na\303\257ve

Is there any swich, or tool to convert these slashed values to a proper letter ?

By default GNU tar attempts to unquote each file or member name, replacing escape sequences according to the following table: ...

This default behavior is controlled by the following command line option:

--unquote
    Enable unquoting input file or member names (default).

--no-unquote
    Disable unquoting input file or member names.

In other words, see if "--no-unquote" is an option for your version of Cygwin.

PS: Which version of Cygwin tar are you using?
