TAR

TAR — Tape Archive

document

TAR (Tape ARchive) is a Unix/Linux file bundling format that combines multiple files and directories into a single file without compression. Originally designed for tape backup storage, it remains the foundation of Linux software distribution and is almost always used with an additional compression layer such as gzip (.tar.gz) or bz2 (.tar.bz2).
