Subversion has an export command when you want a copy of the repository without the .svn directories and files. Git Export is similar to Subversion’s Export command. To export a project in Git, you will need to go to the root of your Git project and issue the following commands.

<pre lang="html">cd git/project

Create a gzip file or a zip file.

<pre lang="html">git archive master | gzip > project.tgz

or

<pre lang="html">git archive master | zip > project.zip
