If I have a git repo with several levels of sub-directories, how do I get git-archive to archive the entire tree, and not just the tree from where I am? Example: % cd foo % cat .git/description foo project % cd bar/baz % git archive --format=tar --prefix=foo/ HEAD | bzip2 > foo.tar.bz2 produces a tar file starting only at baz. If I can't conjur this on the command line with a clever argument to git archive (I've tried several), then how would I ask git "What is your top-level directory" so at least I could write a script to do this?
