OK! Then it would be:
cd /basedir
mkdir codebase/.git; cd codebase; git init-db
for version in 1.0 1.1 1.1a 1.1b 2.0.0 ...; do
cd /basedir
tar xf tarball-$version.tar
cd codebase-$version
git --git-dir=/basedir/codebase/.git add .
git --git-dir=/basedir/codebase/.git \
commit -a -m "Updated to $version" # Spice up to taste
doneAnd the "add" looks strangely misplaced... but it /does/ its job.

Better use it to make up a commit message. Could use inline docs for this.
