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.

Yes.

I've been using git-archive as my main way of deploying to production

found out that git archive has no option to include submodules on the
output archive.

As far as I know this is an known limitation that's just waiting for
someone to solve. Thanks for bringing attention to it.

I just rebased a patch Lars Hjemli posted in 2009 (which I kept in my
GitHub repo to resurrect it when I find the time) to current master:

https://github.com/jlehmann/git-submod-enhancements/commits/archive--submodules

See gmane/$107030 for its original posting. Apart from renaming the
'--submodule' option to '--recurse-submodules' and solving a merge
conflict I didn't change anything. Not sure why it wasn't accepted
back then, I'll have to read that thread more closely ...

If people are interested I could try to polish it and resubmit it.
It would be great if Pedro could test that it does what he expects.
