What is a tar.gz file?

A tar.gz file is basically two files wrapped into one. The first one is a tar file (sometimes referred to as a tarball), a collection of files & folders wrapped into a single package. The tar file then gets compressed into a gz file, utilising the GNU zip (gzip) compression algorithm.

This is a common pattern used in unix/linux environments to bundle multiple files for easier distribution or backup.

Tgz and tar.gz files are essentially the same thing, just with different file extension.
