freesabaiCreate a TAR.GZ
Put many files or whole folders into a .tar.gz, the kind Linux, Macs and servers use, or a plain .tar, or gzip a single file to .gz. In your browser; the files are not sent anywhere.

How to use it
- Press "Choose files" or "Choose a whole folder", or drop files and folders on the box. The folders are kept as they are.
- Name the file and choose .tar.gz (compressed), .tar (not compressed) or .gz (when there is one file).
- Press "Make and save" and it is saved to your device.
Good to know
- You get a standard ustar TAR with UTF-8 names; names over 100 characters are stored the pax way, which tar on Linux and Mac and 7-Zip read. Files over 8 GB work too.
- Permissions are the usual defaults: files 0644, folders 0755, owner 0 (a browser does not know the originals). Make scripts runnable with chmod +x after unpacking. Each file keeps its last-modified time.
- No password: tar.gz has no encryption of its own. For a password use Create a ZIP with AES-256.
- Windows 10 and later open .tar.gz with the tar command or 7-Zip; for people on ordinary Windows a ZIP is easier.
- Over about 2 GB in total the browser may run out of memory, phones especially. The tool warns you first.
Your files stay on your device
Everything runs in your browser. The files are not sent to freesabai's server or anyone else's, and nothing is kept in the browser: close the page and it is gone. The site only counts that this page was opened and how many times a result was saved (never the file name or content; you can turn counting off at the bottom of the site, see the privacy policy).

Questions and answers
How is tar.gz different from ZIP?
A tar.gz packs the files into one block and compresses it as a whole; it is common on Linux and servers. A ZIP compresses each file and opens on Windows by itself, so use ZIP for Windows users.
What times and permissions do the files get?
Each file keeps its last-modified time. Permissions are the usual 0644 for files and 0755 for folders, owned by root, because the browser does not know a file's real permissions.
Can I make a single .gz file?
Yes. With one file chosen, pick .gz to get that file compressed with gzip, its name kept inside. Handy for logs and big text files.
