GZ to TAR
Upload a GZ archive and save it as TAR for storage, sharing or compatibility.
GZ is an archive file format developed by The GNU Project. Its name is an acronym for GNU Zipped. The GZ format is an archive file that is compressed by the standard gzip compression algorithm. It can contain either one or several compressed files. Traditionally, this format is used on Unix operating systems and is used here as a standard for file compression. In addition, file decompression utilities for Mac and Windows also recognize this format in the same way as the gzip utility. Often compressed archives of this type have the double extension .tar.gz (or .tgz).
TAR is a file format of the archived and compressed categories. The original name this format bears is Consolidated Unix File Archive. Its developer is Jean-loup Gailly. Specialized software packages for Unix are used to create files of the specified format. In fact, this is the generally accepted standard archive file format on a Unix extension system. The direct purpose of TAR-format files is to create file system archives. TAR files store detailed information, from the directory structure to timestamps.
