- Description
- StuffIt Archive (.sit) is a compressed archive format originally developed for the classic Mac OS. It bundles multiple files into a single archive while compressing them and preserving Mac-specific data such as resource forks. It was long the standard way to distribute and store files on the Macintosh platform.
- Tar archive created by tar, a Unix-based utility used to package files together; contains multiple files stored in an uncompressed format; commonly compressed into a .GZ file using GNU Zip compression.
