Hi!
I'm the initial author of the Apache maven-scm-providers-git and I need to update our SCM-Matrix. 
This is just for making sure I did not oversee anything.

I didn't came across anything like 'cvs export' and I do not think git really needs this, since it doesn't pollute the working directories with lots of waste like CVS and SVN does. But I just want to make sure to not build workarounds in our scm-provider (checkout + afterwards blasting the GIT_DIR) for things that do exist natively in git.

txs in advance and LieGrü, strub
