What is a .bundle file and how do I run it?

Solution 1:

.bundle is also used by Git. If you have a Git bundle, use Git to checkout from the bundle. It is basically just a remote repository residing on your filesystem.

Solution 2:

VMWare Workstation for Linux is delivered as a .bundle file. It begins with a shell script, and can be run with

sudo sh ./myFile.bundle

(after making it executable with chmod +x ./myFile.bundle)
You can use more to see the shell script at the beginning of the file.
