      Section Title:             Exporting and importing data with volumes                                                        

      Issue description

      Example in guide is..

      podman volume export http_data --output web_data.tar.gz

      The podman volume export does not compress the tar file so the output should read as follows....

      podman volume export http_data --output web_data.tar

      If you run a 'file' command against the created file it is only a tar archive and not a gzipped archive

       

      There is an apparent difference in behaviour to podman volume import because if you pass a gzip file to the import (as happens in the exercise) it will decompress and extract whereas the export does do the tar-ing but not the compression.

      The difference in behaviour should be clearer from the text and the examples/exercise

      Steps to reproduce:

       

      Workaround:

       

      Expected result:
