How do I make a "release" a copy (not a clone) of the repository that contains
only tracked files without .gitignore files? I am using git archive but the
resulting zip file still contains .gitignore files.
Have a look at the git-archive man page. You can exclude such files by
adding the export-ignore attribute to gitattributes.
Thanks Lars,
For anyone else out there with the same problem...
I made a .gitattributes file and it contains only 2 lines:
.gitignore export-ignore
.gitattributes export-ignore
I make my release with:
git archive --format=zip -9 master > ../release.zip
(after right-clicking on my repos root folder and selecting "git bash",
i'm on a windoze machine at work)
the "../" puts the archive next to the repository folder not in it
e.g. for
c:\path\to\repos\
i get
c:\path\to\release.zip
