Re: git-archive ignores submodules

Good to know about git submodule foreach.

Simpler yet, I'm using:

zip -r ../project.zip . -x *.git*

Which essentially does the same thing I would need from git-archive
--recurse-submodule, zip everything excluding .git folders. Still
would be better to use git itself.
