Tar for Windows
The GNU Tar program provides the ability to create tar archives, as well as various other kinds of manipulation. For example, you can use tar on previously created archives to extract files, to store additional files, or to update or list files which were already stored.
The Win32 port can only create tar archives, but cannot pipe its output to other programs such as gzip or compress, and will not create tar.gz archives; you will have to use or simulate a batch pipe. BsdTar does have the ability to direcly create and manipulate .tar, .tar.gz, tar.bz2, .zip, .gz and .bz2 archives, understands the most-used options of GNU Tar, and is also much faster; for most purposes it is to be preferred to GNU Tar.

BsdTar for Windows
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BsdTar: manipulate archives (.tar, .gz, .z, .bz2, .zip)
Version
1.2.38
Description
Bsdtar creates and manipulates streaming archive files (tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, cpio, shar, iso, zip, gz and bz2 archives). The bsdtar program has a number of advantages over previous tar implementations:
Library. Since the core functionality is in a library, it can be used by other tools, such as pkg_add.
Automatic format detection. Libarchive automatically detects the compression (none/gzip/bzip2) and format (old tar, ustar, gnutar, pax, cpio) when reading archives. It does this for any data source.
Pax Interchange Format Support. This is a POSIX/SUSv3 extension to the old "ustar" tar format that adds arbitrary extended attributes to each entry. Does everything that GNU tar format does, only better.
Handles file flags, ACLs, arbitrary pathnames, etc. Pax interchange format supports key/value attributes using an easily-extensible technique. Arbitrary pathnames, group names, user names, file sizes are part of the POSIX standard; libarchive extends this with support for file flags, ACLs, and arbitrary device numbers.
GNU tar support. Libarchive reads most GNU tar archives. If there is demand, this can be improved further.
