Generates a tar.gz with all changed files between current branch and destination branch. Before doing the file it updates all branches from origin.

git diffarchive [destination branch] [destination folder]

[destination branch] is the branch to diff from the current branch. master is used by default [destination folder] is the folder where will write the file and the list of files included, by default is the parent folder.

$> git diffarchive master

The command must be executed in the root of the git repository. The file is generated in the parent directory with the name:

[repository_name]-[destination_branch]-[origin_branch]-patch_[date].tar.gz

Another file with the list of changes is also generated with the name:

[repository_name]-[destination_branch]-[origin_branch]-files_[date].txt

The command is usefull to gather all files needed to be uploaded to a remote server (production, development, etc) and upload it manually.
