What does the tool do?

This sub-tool addresses the most misunderstood aspect; because “gz to tar.gz” can sometimes be meaningless.

Scenario A > Normal .gz (single file):

  • GZ is extracted > single file produced
  • The tool puts that file into a TAR package
  • Then applies gzip > produces *.tar.gz This is putting the “single file into tarball standard.”

Scenario B > Input is already tar.gz but the extension is shortened/incorrect (e.g. just .gz):

  • GZ is extracted > .tar produced
  • The tool asks:
    • Directly rename gzip: .tar > .tar.gz (the most accurate “normalize”)
    • Repackage: extract tar > re-tar > gzip (only special needs)

Tarball concept: tar file + gzip compression.
