Zipping all files in a Git repository

Hello,

This is a quick / reference post illustrating how to archive (zip format) all the files in a branch in a Git repository.

From the command prompt, type:

 
git archive --format=zip -o files.zip master

Explanation:

The “–format” argument lets you specify the archive type. I used the zip file format
The “-o” argument lets you specify the output file name
“master” is the name of the branch to be archived.

Do you want to master Batch Files programming? Look no further, the Batchography is the right book for you.

Available in print or e-book editions from Amazon.

If you are a fan of Futurama, and Bender the bending robot in particular, you might like this audio clip where Bender says grace before eating:

In the name of all that is good and logical, we give thanks for the chemical energy we are about to absorb. To quote the prophet Jerematic, one zero zero zero one zero one zero one zero one zero one… [Time lapse.] Zero zero one… zero one one zero zero one…two.
Amen.
