- Output the Zip archive to a specific file:
`git archive -v {{-o|--output}} {{path/to/file.zip}} HEAD`
- Create a tar archive from the contents of the latest commit of a specific branch:
`git archive -o {{path/to/file.tar}} {{branch_name}}`
- Use the contents of a specific directory:
`git archive -o {{path/to/file.tar}} HEAD:{{path/to/directory}}`
- Prepend a path to each file to archive it inside a specific directory:
`git archive -o {{path/to/file.tar}} --prefix {{path/to/prepend}}/ HEAD`
