If it's only in the worktree copy,\nthen you need to use the option --worktree-attributes to make git\narchive use it.\n\nRené\n"},{"id":"129937","messageId":"f9d2a5e10912142308o50c8b9edy63bb485658c93a03@mail.gmail.com","threadId":"21896","inReplyTo":"4B202945.50200@lsrfire.ath.cx","subject":"Re: Generic filters for git archive?","fromName":"Russ Dill","fromEmail":"russ.dill@gmail.com","sentAt":"2009-12-15T07:08:42Z","receivedAt":"2009-12-15T07:08:42Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"russ.dill@gmail.com","avatar":"https://gravatar.com/avatar/989b24f3fa63126a35d7c74069e2626e715a3b1a86616be9962f7ceae04ff9c5?d=mp&s=160"},"body":"On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 3:48 PM, René Scharfe\n wrote:\n> Am 08.12.2009 02:06, schrieb Russ Dill:\n>> I'm trying to add copyright headers to my source files as they are\n>> exported via git archive. eg:\n>>\n>> * $Copyright$\n>>\n>> to\n>>\n>>  * Copyright (c) 2003-2009 by Foo Bar\n>>  *\n>>  * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it\n>>  * under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the\n>>  * Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your\n>>  * option) any later version.\n>>  *\n>>  * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but\n>>  * WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY\n>>  * or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the GNU General Public License\n>>  * for more details.\n>>  *\n>>  * You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License\n>>  * along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation,\n>>  * Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.\n>>\n>> And properly handling things like '# $Copyright$', '// $Copyright$',\n>> etc. I have a sed script that does this, but no way to apply it to the\n>> output of git archive.

The second one uses the worktree\nversion, which doesn't exist, so no filtering occurs.\n\nWhat commands do you use?\n\nThanks,\nRené\n"}]}
