Hi,
I need to extract tar.gz a file. It's about 950mb. It has another 23 tar.gz files in it. Each of those 23 tar.gz files has one tar file in them. My questions is how I can easily extract all of them? Is there a commandline tool that I can use?
The structure is like the following:
foo.tar.gz
+---bar1.tar.gz
¦ +---foobar1.tar
+---bar2.tar.gz
¦ +---foobar2.tar
+---bar3.tar.gz
¦ +---foobar3.tar
+---bar4.tar.gz
¦ +---foobar4.tar
+---bar5.tar.gz
¦ +---foobar5.tar
+---bar6.tar.gz
¦ +---foobar6.tar
| ..........
| ..........
| ..........
| 23 of them
Thanks in advance.
