Edit Question
Title
Body
As a primarily Windows developer, perhaps I'm missing something cultural in the Linux community, but it has always confused me. When downloading something that the files are first put into a .tar archive then zipped . Why the two-step process? Doesn't zipping achieve the file grouping? Is there some other benefit that I'm not aware of?
