A "me too" mail for once...
I fully second this. cg-export is one of the Cogito commands I still use
frequently. I wonder if there is any obvious piece of Git command set we
could glue this on (so that we don't introduce Yet Another Command)... I
think cg-export is better-named here than git-archive. ;-)
And some command in Git to easily get the equivalent of cg-status -g
output is something I probably miss the most in Git now. (Originally I
was about to say that I just miss an equivalent of cg-status, but
thinking about it, most of the time I'm interested only in either -g
(long branch info) or -w (git status output)).
