Or, if there is only a small number of files in your repository, you
could do something like this:

   git archive HEAD -- \
      $(git ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD | grep -v '^\.gitignore$')

To really solve this without external tools, git-archive needed to grow
an --exclude option like git-ls-files, though.
