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.
TAR.BZ2 is a file format of the archived and compressed categories. This archive file belongs to the category of so-called tarballs. It can be used in operating systems Windows, Linux, MacOS. However, it was most likely created on UNIX OS or similar operating systems (UNIX, GNU / Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, and others). Files of the TAR.BZ2 format can store not only documents or images, but also the source codes of programs. The TAR.BZ2 archive file resembles a nested doll in its structure: in it one archive is packed into another. The data is archived without compression using the tar utility, and then the tar archive is compressed using bzip2.
