Question

the command "tar -cvf ./mydir ./mine" will create a tar file of which directory and create a file named what....

Answer 1

It will create a file named 'mydir' in the current directory (because the name of the tar file is expected right after the 'f' parameter) and will contain the files in the 'mine' directory.
