|  | NAME | 
|  | ---- | 
|  | git-tar-tree - Creates a tar archive of the files in the named tree | 
|  |  | 
|  |  | 
|  | SYNOPSIS | 
|  | -------- | 
|  | 'git-tar-tree' <tree-ish> [ <base> ] | 
|  |  | 
|  | DESCRIPTION | 
|  | ----------- | 
|  | Creates a tar archive containing the tree structure for the named tree. | 
|  | When <base> is specified it is added as a leading path to the files in the | 
|  | generated tar archive. | 
|  |  | 
|  | git-tar-tree behaves differently when given a tree ID versus when given | 
|  | a commit ID or tag ID.  In the first case the current time is used as | 
|  | modification time of each file in the archive.  In the latter case the | 
|  | commit time as recorded in the referenced commit object is used instead. | 
|  | Additionally the commit ID is stored in a global extended pax header. | 
|  | It can be extracted using git-get-tar-commit-id. |
