What GZ and TAR files are

GZ

GZ is a gzip-compressed file using the DEFLATE algorithm. It compresses a single data stream, which is why it usually wraps a TAR archive (.tar.gz) when bundling many files on Unix systems.

TAR

TAR (Tape Archive) is a Unix-based archive format that bundles multiple files into a single file without compression. It is commonly combined with gzip or bzip2 for compressed archives.
