git-archive-file: Pack the currently checked out commit into a zip archive.
$ git archive-file
try on your machine

The command "git archive-file" is not a valid git command. In fact, there is no built-in git command with the exact name "archive-file." It is possible that you mistyped the command or you might be referring to a custom alias or script.

Typically, the "git archive" command is used to create a tar or zip archive file from a specified commit or branch in a Git repository. It allows you to export a specific version of your project without including any Git-specific information like version history or repository metadata.

However, without the full and correct command, it is difficult to provide any further information or explanation.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
