Re: sha1 of the repo excluding history ?

   Can I obtain from git the sha1 of the total last state of the
repo excluding history ? This is a state that covers contents and
names of all files and dirs, and x perm of files;
but excludes history, timestamps, ownerhisp, and inode numbers.

That would be approximately like the slow method:
         'find | egrep -v '/\.git(/|$)' | sort | Xcpio -o | sha1sum -'
(imagining Xcpio that does not archive any ownership, timestamps,
and inode numbers). Can I obtain this result immediately from git ?

I think you are talking about tree object name.  git-cat-file
commit HEAD and look at "tree xxx" line.

You can use "git tar-tree $tree_object_name" to tar it up,
and "git ls-tree -r $tree_object_name" to list all the blob
object names with their perms.
