packaging 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

group of files in a folder can be packaged into a single file using packaging.

Linux has provided a software utility "tar" 

packaging= tar -cvf target.tar sourcedirectory

un-pack = tar -xvf target.tar

un-pack to a different directory = tar -xvf target.tar -C directory

to know the size of a file/directory contents we can use below command

du -h filename/directoryName

compression

------------------------------------------------------------------

The group of files of a folder cannot be compressed directly unless those are packaged

into a single tar file. 

The compression technic will reduce the size of the original files

gzip

--------------------------------------------------------------

Linux has provided a software utility "gzip and gunzip"

gzip = compression

gunzip = uncompression

gzip target.tar = it creates target.tar.gz file with zipped contents in the same directory,

now here you wont find .tar file.

".gz" = indicates its an linux zip extension


gunzip target.tar.gz = this will unzip the .gz into .tar back
