NAME

gitdist — Create archives for git tags

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The gitdist utility creates archives of files for git tags in the given repositories, outputting them in dir. Archives are named using the repository directory name and the tag name (minus any leading "v"), e.g. "name-tag.tar.gz". Newly generated archives are printed to stdout

If any repo arguments are specified gitdist operates on those, otherwise it falls back on the GIT_DIR environment variable or the current working directory if it's undefined.

The following options are available:

-a

Create an archives for every tag.

-s

Group archives into subdirectories by name.

-o dir

Set the archive output directory.

-t tag

Only archives for tag.

-f format

Specify the archive format (see git-archive(1) for options). Default "tar.gz".

EXIT STATUS

The gitdist utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES

Generate archives for every tag in the gitsrv repository:
