-rw-r--r-- scott scott 20 moby.tar.gz

This method works, but it’s just too much typing! There’s a much easier way that should be your default. It involves three new options for tar: -p (or --preserve-permissions or --same-permissions), which makes sure that permissions are preserved; -z (or --gzip), which invokes gzip from within tar so you don’t have to do so manually; and -v (or --verbose), which isn’t required here but is always useful, as it keeps you notified as to what tar is doing as it runs.
