I'm entirely ignorant of pax header stuff, but would it be possible to have the pax header specify which project this commit is from (which has to come from a git-archive option, clearly). Also, could git-get-tar-commit-id have an option to look for more pax headers beyond the first? (I'm building tar files by appending multiple archives for different projects from git-archive, and I suddenly find the embedded commit id is helpful, and surprisingly inaccessible in this context.)
