Yes, #7zip, just undoing the #gzip compression is exactly what i wanted you to do on the `.tar.gz` #tarball.
I don’t wan the files in the .tar file, just a .tar file lying around besides the .tar.gz file.

💡 TIL: you can rename the files being archived by using the --transform option.

In this example, I add a top level directory because I am archiving files from all over the place and I want them to extract nice and neat:

⚙️ tar --create --transform 's,^,container/,' --verbose --gzip --file archive.tar.gz ./file1 /etc/file2 /var/www/html/file3

Chromium source tarball availability

Someone asked how I am creating Chromium (also -ungoogled) packages these days? When you download my SlackBuild script and attempt to build the package yourself, the script will error out because it cannot download the sources.

For weeks now, the Google automation is broken with regards to creating Chromium source tarba

I know, let's support more ways of installing Vivaldi on Linux. 💡

@4censord people who do THIS ↑↑↑ instead of a regular ass #git, #tarball or eben #svn should not be allowed to code - period!

The tar command is famously hard to use.

To create a tarball, remember "Create A File":

tar -caf my_archive.tar.gz file1.txt file2.png

To extract a tarball, remember "eXtract A File":

tar -xaf my_archive.tar.gz

(This works great on Linux. On macOS and some other systems, the -a flag causes problems during extraction—use -xf instead.)

My mnemonic to remember tar commands on Linux

Create tarballs with -caf. Extract tarballs with -xaf (or -xf on macOS).
