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.
