The man page for git-archive has similar language regarding the
--add-file and --add-virtual-file options:
The path of the file in the archive is built by concatenating the
value of the last --prefix option (if any) before...
However this doesn't seem to be true for --add-virtual-file. In any
git repository:
$ touch real_added_file
$ git archive --format=tar --prefix=prefix/ --add-file=real_added_file \
--add-virtual-file=virtual_added_file: HEAD | \
tar tvf - | grep added_file
-rw-rw-r-- root/root 0 2017-02-22 17:18 prefix/real_added_file
-rw-rw-r-- root/root 0 2017-02-22 17:18 virtual_added_file
I expected to see 'prefix/virtual_added_file'.
