TAR

Consolidated Unix File Archive

The TAR file format is a widely used archival format for storing multiple files in a single container, commonly associated with Unix and Linux systems. It is supported by tools like GNU Tar, 7-Zip, and various file archivers, and is often combined with compression formats like GZIP or BZIP2. The format stores files sequentially with metadata such as permissions, timestamps, and ownership, and supports advanced features like symbolic links, hard links, and sparse file handling.

GZ

Gnu Zipped File

The GZ file format is a widely used compression format that reduces file size using the DEFLATE algorithm, commonly associated with Unix and Linux systems. It is supported by tools like gzip, 7-Zip, and WinRAR, and is often used for compressing single files or combining with tar for multiple files. GZ files consist of a header, compressed data, and an optional footer, with features like CRC-32 checksums for data integrity and optional metadata for additional information.
