Check the filesize of the directory first:
user@debian10:~$ du -sh programming/bash/
1.2M programming/bash/

--------------------------------------------------------------

Then archive and compress it (bzip2):
tar cvpjf myarchive.tar.bz2 programming/bash/

--------------------------------------------------------------

Finally, check the filesize of your archive:
user@debian10:~$ ls -lh myarchive.tar.bz2
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 460K Jan 27 07:58 myarchive.tar.bz2
