git-archive: add --output=<file> to send output to a file
When archiving a repository there is no way to specify a file as output. This patch adds a new option "--output" that redirects the output to a file instead of stdout. Signed-off-by: Carlos Manuel Duclos Vergara <carlos.duclos@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
