Git: zip changed files + diff

GIT: zip changed files + diff

Create zip archive with changed files

git archive -o update.zip HEAD $(git diff --name-only <starting SHA> HEAD)

or

git diff --name-only sha1 sha2 > list.txt
zip archive -@ < list.txt

Git diff between two commits

git diff sha1..sha2 > update.patch

Git Alias

Add git alias to .gitconfig:

[alias]
  zip-changed-files = "!f() { git diff --name-only \"$1\" \"$2\" > list.txt; zip update -@ < list.txt; rm list.txt; }; f"

Usage:

$ git zip-changed-files <sha1> <sha2>

Note! Use bash autocomplete. Do not type insane zip-changed-files manually :3

Nice! Thanks!

[alias]
zip-changed-files = "!f() { git diff --name-only \"$1\" \"$2\" > list.txt; 7z a files.7z @list.txt; rm list.txt; }; f"
