🦋 glab(1) — glab-repo-archive 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

glab-repo-archive — Get an archive of the repository. That's the whole assignment, bestie. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

glab repo archive [] [] [flags]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

No repository argument? It just archives the current repository. Iconic, low-effort, we love. 💖

The repository argument is chill with these shorthand references:

• repo
• namespace/repo
• namespace/group/repo

The second argument sets the directory to download the archive into. So that's where your little zip baby goes. 🍼✨

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

• -f, --format="zip" — Optional. Specify format if you want a downloaded archive: tar.gz, tar.bz2, tbz, tbz2, tb2, bz2, tar, zip.
• -s, --sha="" — The commit SHA to download. A tag, branch reference, or SHA can be used. Defaults to the tip of the default branch if not specified.

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

• -h, --help[=false] — Show help for this command.
