Stash gzip files
-
Using Stash wget I've downloaded several .gz files but if I try tar -xvf, I get "invalid header". Should this work? Is this a known bug?
-
Are they tar.gz, or just plain .gz?
-
If the files are
gzip
ped, you need to specify thez
option as well. The full command should look liketar -xzf things.tar.gz
. (Thev
is optional and enables verbose output that prints the names of all extracted files in the process.) -
Perfect. Thank you.
