In the latest Pythonista 3.0 beta os.path -> posix path fails to expand user and get the absolute path

Traceback (most recent call last):

This seems more like a bug in StaSh to me. Somewhere in stash/bin/tar.py, os.path.abspath() is called with an argument of None. From briefly looking at the code, I'm guessing the -f/--file argument wasn't passed to the tar command as it expected.
