SYNOPSIS
git archive-file
DESCRIPTION
git archive-file is a git-extras utility that exports the current HEAD of the repository into a zip archive with a descriptive filename. The generated filename includes the repository name and branch name (e.g., "project.main.zip"), or on a detached HEAD such as a tag, uses the tag name (e.g., "project.1.0.0.zip").The command takes no arguments or options. It always archives the current HEAD and writes the zip file to the current directory.As of git-extras 6.4, the assumed default branch name changed from master to main.
