Just noticed this one. It reminds me of an alternative solution for archives containing both tracked and untracked files gathering dust on my disk because I didn't see much demand. It goes the other way and gives untracked files the same meta data as tracked ones. Interested?

  archive: read short blobs in archive.c::write_archive_entry()
  archive: add --add-file
  Makefile: use git-archive --add-file
