cli-tarHow do I convert a gzip file to a tar.gz file?
To convert a gzip file to a tar.gz file, you can use the tar
command. The command will create a tar archive with the given gzip file.
For example, if you have a gzip file named myfile.gz
, you can use the following command to convert it to a tar.gz file:
tar -zcvf myfile.tar.gz myfile.gz
The command will create a tar.gz file named myfile.tar.gz
with the contents of myfile.gz
.
The command consists of the following parts:
tar
: The command for creating a tar archive-zcvf
: The flags for creating a gzip-compressed tar archivemyfile.tar.gz
: The name of the tar.gz file to be createdmyfile.gz
: The name of the gzip file to be converted
For more information, see the tar command man page.
