git: export diff files between 2 branches/commits

git-export.md

We can get list of changed files between 2 branches/commits by

$ tar --ignore-failed-read -vczf archive.tgz $(git diff --name-only --diff-filter=ACMRT master develop)

Let's see important part:

1. git diff master develop:
   Get differences between master and develop branches.

2. --name-only:
   Output only the names of the affected files instead of a full diff.

3. --diff-filter=ACMRT:
   Only show files added, copied, modified, renamed or that had their type changed (eg. file → symlink) in this commit. This leaves out deleted files.
