TAR.

TAR.GZIN

TAR.GZ wraps a TAR bundle in gzip compression, and the shorter .tgz ending means the same thing. Nearly every Linux system unpacks it with tools that are already installed, so source code and server backups travel this way. Choose it when you want a smaller file without waiting long for the archive to build.

ZIP

ZIPOUT

Windows, macOS and Linux all open ZIP files with no extra software, which is why it stays the default for sending a folder to someone. Compression is moderate and unpacking is quick. Pick ZIP when you care more about the other person being able to open the file than about squeezing out every last megabyte.
