About .GZ

Gzip is a file compression format that uses the DEFLATE algorithm to reduce file size. It is often used in conjunction with TAR to create compressed archives, known as .tar.gz or .tgz files.

GZ files are compressed using the gzip algorithm, commonly used for reducing file size and bundling files with TAR.
