To be a bit blunt, that's simply not reasonable.  There are a number
of files and directories, not the least diverse git related files,
that are never going to make it into the tarball.

Have a look at .gitattributes, you have a number of patterns there
with the attribute 'export-ignore'.  Those are files that don't make
it into the tarball.
