| git archive --format zip --output /full/path/to/zipfile.zip master |
git archive -o latest.zip HEAD
Create a Zip archive that contains the contents of the latest commit on the current branch. Note that the output format is inferred by the extension of the output file.
Much simpler, no?
@scofield-ua Helpful if you've already checked out the branch to archive
I wanted a git clone without the metadata / an uncompressed archive.
git archive --format=tar HEAD | (cd dest; tar -xpf -)
You can probably figure out how to flip the directory dependency to the git side with --remote.
If I understand @sfaleron, I want something similar, except I want to zip my git clone. I think this would involve a zip of .git hidden directory, something that apparently is not possible.
